1. Wash and crush your grapes. You can use a grape crusher or even a clean pair of shoes (just kidding, please don't).
2. Transfer the crushed grapes to your bucket and add the yeast and sugar. Mix well.
3. Cover the bucket with a clean cloth and let it sit in a warm place (around 21-27°C) for 24 hours. This is called primary fermentation.
4. After 24 hours, strain the grape mixture into your demijohn. Make sure to squeeze out all the juice.
5. Cover the demijohn with an airlock and let it sit in a warm, dark place for about 10-14 days. This is secondary fermentation.
6. After 10-14 days, you'll see the wine has cleared. Siphon it into a sterilized bottle, leaving behind any sediment.
7. Let it age for a few months, and then, it's time to enjoy your homemade daru!
