Seeds and all, I used a champagne yeast   To  The Hot Pepper....   Its not like the wine would be used to have with a dinner as a beverage, the taste of last years was actually really good and the only issue I had was the acidity. I have also made 2 other fruit wines and have been doing pretty...

Jan 25th and I completed the jalapeno wine, gravity checked out at 1.00    the taste is pretty good the heat has increased and is tough to take down a whole ounce...

dunno but nice looking

Would be a dream to go to Indonesia !!!
