How to Make Pineapple Peel Wine and VinegarPosted on December 23, 2009 by marvin
Pineapple peels can be a good organic fertilizers for garden plants.
Converting those peels into wine or vinegar can also be done. Save
those peels of pineapples for organic fertilizer, wine or vinegar.
Which one would you choose?
Converting to Organic Fertilizer
Just place those peels beside plants. The plant will love you for sure!
Converting to Wine
1. Extract pineapple peels.
2. Pasteurize the juice at 70ºC for 15 minutes.
4. Transfer the juice into fermentation vessel,1.5 cola bottle will do.
Bigger container is preferred for larger volumes.
5. Dissolve the active wine yeast in small amount of lukewarm
water then add it into the fermentation vessel.
6. Cover the fermentation vessel with cheesecloth or fermentation
lock. Fermentation starts when bubbles start to rise on top. It
usually takes three to four weeks.
7. When fermentation stops (bubbling ceases), Transfer the newly
fermented wine into tightly capped bottle for aging. Freshly
harvested wine can be consumed as is but aging imparts more
flavor. Age wine for one year or longer.
Converting to Vinegar
1. Extract pineapple peels.
2. Add 4 cups water, 1 ½ cup sugar per liter of juice and pasteurize
for 10 – 15 minutes at 60 -65ºC.
3. Transfer into sterilized container, half-filled.
4. Cool, then add ½ tsp wine yeast for every 8 c mixture. Allow to
ferment for 7-8 days.
5. Decant/siphon to separate sediments, dead yeast.
6. Add one cup vinegar starter for every four cups liquid. Cover with
clean cloth/paper.
7. Allow to ferment at room temperature for 2-3 weeks or until a
sour vinegar is attained. Decant to separate the sediments.
8. Transfer vinegar to bottles and pasteurize. Age for a month.
9. Pasteurize at 60ºC for 5 minutes. Filter, bottle, seal tightly, label
and store.
Notes:
Measure the following physico-chemical properties and adjust
accordingly to set standard. Properties should be uniform every
batch.
a. sugar content. Sugar concentration can be increased by adding
sugar or lowered by adding water or pulp.
b. pH. This can be lowered by adding citric acid or increased by
adding water or pulp.
c. titrable acidity. Adjustment can be made by mixing different
concentrations. Vinegar should have at least 4% TA.
d. alcohol content. Adjustment can be made by mixing different
concentrations.
Adjustments can be computed using Pearson’s Square formula.
e. See standards for wine here.
f. See standards for vinegar here.
How to Make Mango WinePosted on November 22, 2009 by marvin
There are lots of mango here in the Philippines, like the Manila
super mango or mangang kalabaw, apple mango, Indian
mango, piko, sapadera or supsupin and ….. [please contribute to
this list!].
Mango is available whole year round. The price is high during off-
season but during the peak season, the price drops low and it’s hard
for us to recover capital.
We can process our mangoes into wine, a high-end and expensive
product.
Materials:
Mango, wine yeast, gallon jars
fermentation lock, sugar, water bath
paddle, sodium metabisulfite
flasks, wire needle, funnel
graduated cylinder, wine bottles, cotton
cork, waring blender, cap seal, pH meter
basin, hand refractometer and strainer
PROCEDURES:
Juice Preparation
Wash fully ripe fruits, cut and scoop out the flesh. Weigh and blend
in waring blender. Add 3 liters water every kg of juice. Add sugar to
adjust to 20ºBrix for dry wine and 25ºBrix for sweet wine.
See sugar content determination by refractometer.
Add 5 ml of 10% sodium metabisulfite per gallon juice to destroy
spoilage microorganisms. Cover the jar and let stand for 16-18
hours at room temperature. Note: sodium metabisulfite is
processing aid, will never be a part of final product.
Starter Preparation
Gather 10% of the total volume of juice and pasteurize for 30
minutes. Cool to 40-45ºC or until it can be touch comfortably by
hand. Inoculate with pure culture of wine yeast. Ferment for 18-24
hours and inoculate into prepared juice.
Fermentation
Add starter culture. Cover the container with cotton plug and
ferment for two days. Replace the cover with fermentation lock and
continue fermentation for 3 to 4 weeks. Fermentation is done when
bubbling stops.
Aging and Clarification
Freshly harvested wine is ready for consumption but storing for at
least one year improves its clarity and flavor. After aging, siphon the
clear wine, taking care to avoid the settled solids at the bottom.
Pack into tightly sealed wine bottle.
Notes:
Measure the following physico-chemical properties and adjust
accordingly to your set standard. Properties should be uniform
every batch.
a. sugar content. Sugar concentration can be increased by adding
sugar or lowered by adding water.
b. pH. This can be lowered by adding citric acid or increased by
adding water or pulp.
c. titrable acidity. Adjustment can be made by mixing different
concentrations or addition of citric acid.
d. alcohol content. Adjustment can be made by mixing different
concentrations.
Adjustments can be computed using Pearson’s Square formula.
e. See standards for wine here.
Trying to Make A Calamansi Wine !Posted on December 21, 2011 by marvin
Previously, my friend and I worked at our alma mater. Our project
was making and market testing of dragon fruit wine. One of our
problem was the souring of wine. We did all the sanitation practices
to prevent the entry of contaminant acetic acid bacteria. The
bacteria strain is responsible for turning of good wine to vinegar. We
did all we can but many of the batches still ended up souring.
Maybe our best effort was not enough.
Lately, he found a reading material that addition of citric acid to
must is not recommended. It can trigger the acidification process –
making the wine taste like vinegar.
I guessed that was the culprit. We are adding citric acid to adjust
the mixture acidity before fermentation. Tartaric acid use is advised.
The same also explains why I never see any wine made of citrus
family. Do you see one?
Now, I am going to test the calamansi wine.The main acid
component of calamansi is citric acid – souring is expected.
Fermentation takes three to four weeks. Update will be publish after
this period.
————–
After over one and a half month, I got the two trials and poured
them carefully into two separate glasses. The trials tasted great.
They taste like an expensive and high quality vinegar product. I
tried to make wine and not vinegar!
How to Make Oregano WinePosted on August 30, 2010 by marvin
Another exciting product that can be made from our medicinal herb
oregano is wine. But this herb contains no sugar! Its not a problem
because sugar can always be added.
Sugars like muscovado, coconut sugar and kaong sugar can be
used. Don’t try to replace it with artificial sweeteners like aspartame
and acesulfame-k, they are not fermentable.
Wine Making Procedures
1. Extract the juice by mashing or crushing. Filter or strain the juice
to remove any solid particles. Add 200-300 ppm sodium or
potassium metabusulfite to prevent contamination and browning.
Place the treated juice in a sealed container and keep it for 24
hours. In case the metabisulfite solution is not available, simply boil
the juice.
2. Before fermenting, test the acid and sugar contents of the
treated juicer or must. for testing acid content, use pH paper. To
produce dry wines, set pH at 3-4. For sweet wines, use pH 3.5-5.5.
Adjust pH with juice or citrus or unripe fruit, or dilute with water.
To test sugar content, use the hand refractometer. A reading of
20 oB is good for dry wine and 25oB for sweet wine.
3. Add yeast to the must. Commercial dry-wine yeast starters can
be used, but good results can be obtained with pure cultures of wine
yeast in agar slants. Fleischman’s or baker’s yeast can be used, but
it imparts a “bready” aroma and flavor to the wine.
4. Stir the mixture thoroughly and transfer it to fermentation
containers. Enamel, floss, wooden oak, earthenware, and plastic
containers are suitable for wine making. Wide-necked vessels are
preferable for pulp-fermentation to facilitate removal of pulp and
cleaning. Narrow-necked containers are best suited for juice
fermentation and storage, since they can be sealed easily with a
lock or rubber bung.
5. Seal the fermentation container with a water valve or water bung.
When bubbles form, it means that fermentation is going on. The
rate at which gas bubbles through the bung indicates the rate of
fermentation.
Do not allow the temperature to drop below 19oC or exceed 28oC.
6. After four or more weeks, the absence of gas indicates the end of
the fermentation.
7. Siphon the clear liquid into sterile bottles or oak barrels. In
moving the jar, be careful not disturb the sediment. Fill the bottle or
barrel with semi-clear wine 1.5-2.5 cm below the cover, so that only
a minimum amount of air is allowed inside.
8. Age the wine for one year or longer. Longer aging results in more
mature and mellow wines. If sediments form, transfer wine into
another bottle.
9. after aging, the wine should be clear. When it is not, use
clarifying agents, such as egg whites, gelatin, milk, bentonite or
powdered charcoal. Add and stir the agent. Let it stand for 7-10
days, and filter the wine into clean, properly sterilized bottles. Seal
bottles with cork.
10. Store wine with drive-corks in horizontal position. Place the
bottles in a cool, well-ventilated, and dark place.
Notes:
Measure the following physico-chemical properties and and adjust
accordingly to your set standard. Properties should be uniform
every batch.
a. sugar content. Sugar concentration can be increased by adding
sugar or can be lowered by adding water or pulp.
b. pH. This can be lowered by adding citric acid or can be increased
by adding water or pulp.
c. titrable acidity. Adjustment can be made by mixing different
concentrations or addition of citric acid.
d. alcohol content. Adjustment can be made by mixing different
concentrations.
Adjustments can be computed using Pearson’s Square formula.
e. See standards for wine here.
Basically, there are six types of wine.
1. Dry, Semi-dry and Sweet wine
2. Fortified and Unfortified wine
3. Sparkling wine, Still wine (effervescent of non-effervescent) and
carbonated wine
4. Red and white wines
5. Special or Medicinal wines
6. Basi

Investigatory Project Pesticide from Radish Extract
CHAPTER I
Introductions:
A. Background of the Study
Radish is an annual herb widely grown for its edible fleshy, hot tasting roots maybe
red, white or purple. Every part of the root or the plant can be used in different ways.
The leaves and the roots are eaten raw in salads. Likewise, it can be cooked or mix
with meat to satisfactory attain its delicious taste. Aside from food, it is dried for juice
extraction.
Radishes were probably native to China. It was developed from a live plant that
grows in the cooler region of Asia. It spread to the Mediterranean region before the
Greek era and was introduced into the new world early in the 16th century. Radishes
grow in Asia, Europe and America. It was the favorite of the ancient Egyptians, Greek
and Chinese.
There is a little food value in the radish. It is use chiefly as a relish or to decorate
salads. Radishes are the easiest of all garden vegetables to grow, but they should be
given in a good rich soil. The first seed must be sown as soon as the ground is
workable and not too cold for the seed to germinate.
B. Objectives
To produce pesticide out of radish extract.
C. Statement of the Problem
What is the effect of radish extract as pesticide on certain pests?
D. Hypothesis
There is no significant difference in using this natural pesticide from radish extract.
E. Importance of the Study
In choosing this project, we wanted to contribute knowledge in maintaining the good
health of vegetable plants by using a pesticide out of radish extract. It maybe helpful
in livelihood by producing good crops. The harvest can be sold to market as an
additional income. It can also minimize the number of planters who used chemical
which are found distractive to the environment.
F. Scope and Limitation
This study focused on the utilization of the extract from radish as pesticide against
different kind of pests like worms, ants and aphids. Experimentation was done in our
backyard and was applied in affected Guyabano plants and sugar apple fruit.
CHAPTER II
G. Review of Related Literature.
Radish, Raphanus sativus, belongs to the cabbage family, rassicaeae. It is grown for
its fleshy root, which varies in sizes from the few grams of popular red American and
European varieties to the one or more kilograms of the Japanese white or draikon.
There are two kinds of radish, one is planted for its crops and the other for its leaves
and roots. Some varieties include Japanese radish, a big and long late harvest radish;
and the China radish which is fine smooth and white. The latter is productive and has
a moderate length of time for harvest. The icicle radish is white, early harvested and
its long with small roots. Planters can harvest the plant in 60 days and other can
harvest within 100 days from planting.

Explanation
It reveals that pure radish extract is more effective rather that when water was
added to it. It is 100% effective in worms and ants, and 50% effective in aphids. This
shows that the radish extract is very effective in killing certain pests.
Findings:
After several experimentations, we found out that pure 100% radish extract when
applied to aphid, worms, and ants is an effective pesticide. This pesticide can
minimize the number of people who used chemical found and to affect our health and
environment.
Conclusion:
Based on the data gathered. We therefore conclude the following:
1. The radish extract can be used as pesticide.
2. Pure radish extract is effective in killing certain pests.
Recommendation:
We recommended a more experimentations about radish extract must be done to
improve the quality of the product.
