Yeah not much dilution at all in the 1gal. I also make the wine in a 2gallon bucket so i have extra to top off, I just like giving it a little more of a flavor change. But even after racking I do not add my potassium sorbate until i get the flavor that i want so it still ferments out, just...

Hello everyone, I have been making wine and skeeter pee for about 6 months now and i am always trying new stuff to up my flavors of the wine i make for myself and friends. So lately have been topping off with Welches sparkling juice and the wine is getting some really nice flavor.. If it is dark...

Hello Amorgan, I started just a few months ago and i enjoy doing it. but i just started off using the welches and ocean spray juices and i love those wines because they are sweet and hold the fruit flavor really well and real hard to mess up. All i did was buy bungs and airlocks that fit the...

Happy Anniversary Vinny, glad to have you here!

Thank you very much for the replies and info.

Question for ya'll, Am i looking for .999 gravity for this pee to be done? When the pee is done do you guys just degas it and leave it in same vessel and start drinking or do you rack to another vessel after degassing it? Thank you Biggz

Hounddawg the Skeeter pee has shot down already to SG of 1.020 so it is almost ready for you...lol, haha

I do use wine yeast..i like it but just getting used to how much sugars i like in it with the wine yeast. used it in my orange blossom honey mead and it is dang good and I used it in the strawberry skeeter pee i just started on the 5th. Thanks for info

I have also read a few places that if you use bread yeast when making small amounts gallon or 2qts that it will not be as dry and will retain most of the fruit flavor compared to the wine yeast. I have tried two 1 gal batches of peach, 1 with Red Starwine yeast and the other with Fleischmanns...

I bought some bentonite to use on my wine, mixed some up and that crap was like cement..i decided to go against the clearing agents and just let the clarity happen on its own and it will. The wine was nice and clear by the time i got to drinking it and the mead is still sitting and getting more...

Less than 24 hours later and it is fermenting nicely!

First batch here 3 gallons of Strawberry Skeeter Pee! glad to support:) 5,369 + 3 = 5,372

Hello everyone! I am in the waiting mode of my mead and wine to finish so i thought i would make some SP, but i went ahead and made it strawberry SP.. It seems like it is going to be very tasty. I made 3 gallons of this pee and i cant wait to drink it. The SG is at 1.090

Well it's been a while since i updated. The mead is real tasty and the gravity is also going down. I checked it yesterday and it down to 1.02something and it is really clearing up nice but i just racked it so messed with the murkiness. Thanks again to everyone for the help.

Will do, thanks again for all the help.
