How to make vinegar from grapes

Below are the steps on how to make vinegar from grapes:

1. Start by gathering ripe grapes, preferably organic if possible.
2. Wash the grapes thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris.
3. Crush the grapes to release their juices. You can do this by hand or use a blender or juicer.
4. Transfer the grape juice into a large, clean container like a glass jar or ceramic crock.
5. Add a few tablespoons of sugar to the grape juice to help feed the fermentation process.
6. Cover the container with a clean cloth or paper towel and secure it with a rubber band. This will allow air to flow in and out while protecting the mixture from contaminants.
7. Store the container in a warm, dark place for about 2-4 weeks. Stir the mixture every few days to aerate it.
8. After a few weeks, you will start to see the liquid turn into vinegar as it develops a sour taste and distinct aroma.
9. Once the vinegar has reached your desired level of acidity, strain out the grape skins and seeds using a cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer.
10. Transfer the vinegar into clean bottles or jars and store it in a cool, dark place.

Congratulations! You have successfully made vinegar from grapes.
