Alrighty. So the new place has a Mulberry tree out back, and after a few searches around for uses, I seen Mulberry wine and then came across Mulberry vodka.
I'd love to try a wine, something small, maybe in the 4L range if possible (have a 5L demi on hand).

But this also looks good. Ran through a pot still once to strip it, and once more to give it some better purity by the looks of it.
It would be good to do a single pot with careful cuts to avoid the need of multiple fermentations. (The tree is big,but don't think it will have enough for that many runs :lol:).
So the reason for the topic is...what would be a good way to go about this?
obviously depending on the amount of sugars I'd get from the berries would determine if I need to add sugar to the wash.
Would it be best to get juice from them and separate from the pulp or just ferment it altogether to help the yield.
In reality, I'll probably need to use sugar and water to increase the wash size and final ABV due to the size of these things.
Not sure if anyone has any experience with these, just throwing it out there.
Might do some experiments with a small batch to see how much they yield first.
Cheers
