Here’s How to Make Wine in Your Instant Pot

The Instant Pot has become a worldwide sensation. Millions of people have purchased the product to make the perfect rice, create healthy steamed veggies, and slow cook food throughout the day. But, according to one food blogger, we’ve all been missing out on the Instant Pot’s best recipe: Wine.

According to Murphy, you can’t just throw juice in your Instant Pot and hope for wine—sorry.

Instead, you must start things off by fully sanitizing your Instant Pot. To do so, take one tablespoon of bleach and one gallon of hot water. “Mix well, and pour into your Instant Pot liner pot.” Allow the mixture to sit for at least 30 seconds to kill any type of bacteria. Dry with a clean towel, “and you’re ready to go,” he wrote.

Next, gather your ingredients, which include:

  • Welch’s Grape Juice (64-oz. bottle)
  • 1 cup of sugar (granulated)
  • a funnel
  • 1 packet Lalvin Red Wine Yeast
  • Instant Pot (with yogurt function)
  • Clear packing tape

Combine these ingredients in a six-step process and leave in your Instant Pot for 48 hours. Then, transfer your wine to a plastic container and let it sit for eight full days. And voila! You’ve made Instant Pot wine.
