Yesterday I bought 10packs of frozen summer fruit, and mixed it all together with 18litres of Ocean spray cranberry and blackcurrant juice.
I boiled the juice for 10minutes to kill off any preservatives (I don't think there were any tbh) and let it all stew for 24hours, I have just removed and squeezed most of the fruit mush that was in there and added just over 3kg of sugar, which gets it smidgies below 1.090 on the hydrometer.
At the shop there was only beer yeast and no wine yeast I bought some just on the off chance it will be ok, so just trying to find out now.
I've had a quick google but I can only find "Can I use wine yeast for making beer?" and my question is the other way round.
Could I put the beer yeast in tonight along with some nutrient and then just put another pack of propper wine yeast in tomorrow, or should I just be patient and wait until I get propper wine yeast tomorrow?
Thanks!
