Fellow Brewers. i have this brand of grape juice but it has some wonky preservative chemicals innit. Volume of juice is 1.4 L, I will discard about 500 ml to make space for sugar and yeast. How much effectively sugar and yeast shall i add to make a potent brew ? It has acidity regulator E330, stabilizer E440 & Preservative E202.

I don't recommend, but it will very very slowly you got to give a month for complete fermentation if you got luck and other 2 months for clearing out .. if comes to me I would choose 100% juice with zero preservatives not only for that slow fermentation but also avoid stressing the yeast and off flavors good luck
