So, with the help of the Davis children picking up handfuls of grapes to wash in the sink, the grapes were washed, boiled, squished through a strainer with a wooden squisher (technical term), sweetened with sugar, boiled, and poured into 200 degree heated jars and then sealed with screw on lids as the liquid cooled. We got 5 and 1/2 quarts of juice out of half a bushel. The juice tastes amazing, way better than from a can. I didn't strain it through a pillowcase like I read you can because I figure I don't care and it probably gets rid of fiber or something good. So it's just a little cloudier than store bought. A success for sure!
