Step 1
Absolutely all grape varieties can be frozen, but European grapes, which have a dark color and dense pulp, are best preserved. Only grapes with maximum ripeness are suitable for freezing. Select only fully ripe berries. Unripe grapes should not be used, since freezing makes it impossible for the berries to ripen.
Step 2
In the future, remove all wounded, crushed or spoiled berries from the bunch of grapes. Completely clean the branch of various kinds of debris.

Rinse the bunches thoroughly with running water.
Step 4
Be sure to dry the berries. To do this, it is best to place the bunches of grapes on a terry towel and wait until they dry completely.
Step 5
Arrange the dried bunches of grapes on a tray, which must be refrigerated for 30 minutes. During this time, the grapes are pre-cooled.
Step 6
Next, put the tray with berries in the freezer for 30 minutes. Then remove the tray from the refrigerator. The grapes are now completely ready to be placed in containers.
Step 7
It is recommended to pour sugar syrup on light grape varieties before freezing, which will ensure the quality of the freezing.
Step 8
Prepare special freezer bags or containers in which you plan to place the grape bunches. Arrange the berries in a container and place back in the refrigerator. The storage temperature of frozen grapes should be no more than minus 24 degrees. Lower temperatures can spoil the grapes.
