1. Cut melons in quarters, remove all rind parts entirely and discard
seeds. Cut "meat" of melons into cubes.
2. Using nylon straining bag, mash and squeeze out juice into primary
fermentor. Keeping all pulp in straining bag, tie top and place in
primary.
3. Stir in all ingredients EXCEPT yeast. Cover primary.
4. After 24 hours, add yeast. Cover primary.
5. Stir daily and check S.G.
6. When ferment reaches S.G. 1.040 (3-5 days) lightly press juice from
bag. Syphon wine off sediment into glass secondary. Attach airlock.
7. When ferment is complete (S.G.has dropped to 1.000 -- about 3 weeks)
syphon off sediment into clean secondary. Reattach airlock.
