Making your own wine is fun, and not as complicated as you might think. The most important thing to remember is sanitation. Soaking equipment in a diluted bleach solution will prevent a lot of disappointment later. Most of the items you will need can be purchased from a local brewing store or ordered online.

Homemade Wine Tips

1. Primary and Secondary Fermenters
These should be glass or plastic and hold at least 5 gallons. The secondary fermenter will need to accommodate a wine making air-lock.

2. Plastic Tubing
This should be several feet long.
