WINE VINEGAR

Updated: Mar 22, 2024

Make your own homemade Red Wine Vinegar, White Wine Vinegar or Rice Wine Vinegar from leftover wine or sake!


INGREDIENTS

1 jar (~2 cups) vinegar mother culture (vinegar "mothers" are made up of a SCOBY (symbiotic colony of bacteria and yeast) and raw vinegar)

~1 bottle of wine (ideally free of sulfites - see note below)

~2 cups filtered water


Note: Many modern commercial wines are made with the addition of sulfites, to help preserve the wine long term. Unfortunately, sulfites inhibit the growth of our desirable vinegar bacteria! Seek out "natural" wines that use minimal to no sulfites. If that option is not available, you can remove sulfites by stirring the wine continuously for about 30 minutes (quite the workout!) or add 1/2 teaspoon of hydrogen peroxide (3% from any drugstore) per bottle of wine. The addition of hydrogen peroxide is harmless, and a popular trick to ensure home vinegar makers' success!


METHOD

Combine all ingredients in a large jar, crock or small oak barrel. If using a jar or crock, cover the top with muslin cloth and secure with a rubber band. Store in a warm, dark place and leave undisturbed for 30-60 days.

After 30 days, smell and taste your vinegar. It should smell and taste like vinegar and you may see a "mother" SCOBY forming on top. If it smells like nail polish remover, swirl to aerate the vinegar for 2 minutes. Your vinegar is not flawed, it just needs more oxygen to complete the fermentation. If you are using a wooden barrel, let it ferment in the barrel for a minimum of 3-4 months so the oak can impart a flavor and balance to your homemade vinegar.

Before bottling, reserve some of your vinegar to use as a starter for the next batch (see notes, below). Bottle your finished vinegar in dark bottles or a ceramic vessel. Vinegar, like fine wine, gets better with time.

NOTES

The basic recipe for vinegar is 2 parts wine, 1 part filtered water and 1 part mother of vinegar. You can continue making vinegar using this ratio, with your reserved mother vinegar as one "part." Adjust the amount of water and wine accordingly.

와, 직접 와인 식초를 만드는 과정이 정말 흥미롭네요!

집에서 만드는 만큼 재료와 발효 과정에 신경 쓰는 재미가 있는 것 같아요.

혹시 집에서 편안하게 발효 과정을 즐기고 싶다면, 허니룸 출장마사지 같은 아늑한 공간에서 작은 홈 프로젝트를 해보는 것도 추천드려요.

편안한 분위기에서 와인 식초 만들기 같은 취미를 즐기면 시간 가는 줄 모른답니다!

I love how this post breaks down turning leftover wine or sake into homemade red wine, white wine, or rice vinegar — it’s simple, practical, and makes you rethink “waste” as an ingredient worth fermenting.Poki Sprunki Crazyig Hot Games Grow A Garden Poki 4399小游戏大全 Tiktok Games pokigames Royal Kingdom LoveMoney Block Blast

If you are using a wooden barrel, you should let the vinegar to ferment within the barrel for at least three to four months. This will allow the oak to contribute geometry dash a taste and balance to the vinegar that you have created at home.
