Dandelion wine

Well yesterday was a nice day outside so we decided to go to a local field with a friend and her kids. Thought we could let the little munchkins runaround and we could pick some flowers to make wine. Kids lasted about 30 mins before the crabbies started in. we picked enuf flowers for a 5 gallon batch. But after getting home and spending 3 hrs trimming away all the stalks from the heads, I decided that i had enuf and just started a 3 gallon batch.




Here is the steps i took and a couple pics to follow.

1 Remove all green from flowers ( would make it taste bad)

2 Boil 3 gallons of water and pour over the flowers petals.

3 cover with a cloth for 2 days ( Im at the end of day 1 tonight)

More pics and details to follow in the upcoming days
