Description

Making wine at home just got more fun, and easier, with Richard Bender’s experiments. Whether you’re new to winemaking or a seasoned pro, you’ll find this innovative manual accessible, thanks to its focus on small batches that require minimal equipment and use an unexpected range of readily available fruits, vegetables, flowers, and herbs. The ingredient list is irresistibly curious. How about banana wine or dark chocolate peach? Plum champagne or sweet potato saké? Chamomile, sweet basil, blood orange Thai dragon, kumquat cayenne, and even cannabis rhubarb wines have earned a place in Bender’s flavor collection. Go ahead, give it a try. Read more

    • No Whining Wine Making
Format: Paperback
Great book especially if you don’t want to add adjuncts to your wine. Very informative and recipes easy to follow in 1 gallon batches.

    • Inspirational and encouraging!
Format: Paperback
I grow a lot of my own produce and I've toyed time and again with making my own wine, but every time I looked for advice online or in books, it seemed so overwhelming and intimidating. This book changed all that! The details, pictures, and plentiful advice were reassuring, and I loved the casual, low-pressure approach by the author. He really gets that most of us aren't looking for a professional vineyard product but rather a new way to enjoy our local produce. He inspired me to jump right in and give it a try without stressing about every detail. I also really liked his discussion on using a higher alcohol content to avoid the aspects of wine that can lead to headaches. He didn't have a recipe for the produce I wanted to try (tomatillos), but his recipes follow a pretty standard formula that made it possible to invent my own. It's only been aging a few months, but initial tasting seemed pretty good! I can't wait to try out more ideas! Definitely worth the price! ... show more

    • This is the best wine recipe book I have ever used!!
Format: Paperback
Omg this book is awesome! I have 2 different types fermenting and starting 2-3 more next week once I get enough of the fruits I want to use! So incredibly easy! Colorful book, great information and mini tutorial in the front. The recipes are awesome! So creative without adding a bunch of unnecessary stuff to your wine. I live in a place where I can pick berries nearby, neighbors give me extras from their garden and I have land to grow things. I love that these recipes used what you gather and no chemicals added! I love this book so much! ... show more

    • Fun, Simple, and Creative
Format: Paperback
This book demystifies wine making. I have been scared to try because carboys and fermentation locks invoke my high school chemistry PTSD. Bender pares down the science (so if that is part of your joy, this book may be too simple for you. Fair enough), and keeps directions common sense and fun. I enjoy his anecdotes and creative recipes. I bought mike seeds just to try out one of the pepper recipes. Too much fun! ... show more

    • Good addition to the library, but have other wine-making books as well.
Format: Paperback
I have mixed feelings about this book. It is full of great ideas, and one person's view of winemaking. The recipes tend to be a bit formulaic, most repeat the previous recipe with a few alterations. I am pleased to own this book, but always check back across a couple of others to modify what I do. Don't rely on it as your only source for how to make wine. ... show more

    • Clear and concise; creates confidence.
Format: Paperback
The first 3 chapters alone are worth it. Clear, concise instructions and explanations for what equipment and general ingredients you need, what they're for, and how to use them. It really makes me feel more confident in what I'm doing, knowing why and when to do it. Compared to searching online for instructions, there's so much conflicting information without great explanations. I'm making pear wine right now, but I'm gonna get into those chilli wines next year. ... show more
