- Press the juice from the apples. On average, 10 kg yields about 7 liters of juice (depending on the apple variety and juiciness). 2. Add sugar to the juice at a rate of 200 g per liter. Stir the juice thoroughly until the sugar dissolves, then let it stand for a day. If you don't have time to wait, you can move on to the next step right away. 3. Pour the sweetened juice into large jugs, filling them three-quarters full. 4. Fit airlocks onto the jugs. 5. Fermentation will take 1–1.5 months. Put the jugs in a dark place at room temperature. 6. Once the wine has become almost clear (though not yet pale) with no visible bubbles, fermentation is nearly finished. Pour off the liquid, leaving the sediment at the bottom, and strain it through several layers of cheesecloth. You can also strain the sediment itself through a dense layer of cheesecloth. 7. Fit the airlocks again for another 2 weeks. After that, remove the airlocks and seal the jugs tightly with lids. 8. You can tell fermentation has completely stopped when the wine has turned perfectly clear, the color of strong tea, and no more bubbles rise. Strain the wine through layers of cheesecloth again, leaving the sediment at the bottom. 9. In all, you should end up with about 6 liters of young wine, which you can already drink — but it's better to let it mature for another 1–1.5 months under an airtight lid. Or bottle it right away, as long as the caps seal tightly. Store apple wine in a cool place that must be dark, so it doesn't lose its beautiful color. This wine keeps for quite a while, but no longer than 2 years.
