Just A Little Bit OF Grape Jelly

How much grape Jelly does 31 pounds of various grapes make?  Well let's just say that we won't be running out of Grape Jelly soon.  Lisa and I made 35 half pint jars of jelly.  Now this jelly does look a bit different due to the kind of grapes we used.  The grapes that Lisa and I picked were a mixture of several brands: Niagara, concord, etc.  This time we had more of the red and green grapes and less of the dark purple grapes so the jelly looks more like a rose wine color that the dark purple grape jelly.  Mixing grape types may not make any sense but it sure does make good jelly.  So after spending a couple of hours destemming the grapes, what a sticky mess, we continued with the two day process in making the jelly and we were successfully made just a little bit of grape jelly!
