I'd be wary of the information in any book claiming to be an "Artisan's" guide that recommended turbo yeast...

Cheers,

Have a read of the fruit and veg section here first mate! It will give you a good idea what to do with fruit. I'd swap turbo out for EC1118 yeast. Ditch the pectin and adjust the PH. I don't reckon any wash should have to sit around for 3 months! :handgestures-thumbupleft:
