heated strawberries and water till boil and then added to raisin/tea water.
let cool- added pectanase and yeast.
I racked the wine into gallon jugs and put it on the shelf to finish fermentation,
sometime in the week- the airlock was blown off and almost 1/2 the strawberry wine was gone-the air lock had got plugged and pressure built up- I found the air lock across the garage- and the wine was pretty much had sprayed all over and dripped down to floor.
more recently, I had decided to “pepper” one of the wines.
