I went by my rather poor memory of previous IM kits without checking my log, and added 3 lbs. of sugar plus 1/3 of the fpac, which gave me an OG of 1.090. That's higher than I would have liked for this one. If it finishes the same as the other numbers I've seen, I'm looking at 12.5% abv. I...

Others seem to have provided lots of good info, but this is a fairly common build for beer brewers. You can search for "fermentation chamber" for general build design ideas. A lot of them use foam insulation sheets for insulation and don't even bother finishing over it. An Inkbird...

I think you can just tag an admin/moderator. @ibglowin

I see on the Adventures in Homebrewing site a page for a Nocturnal Eclipse kit. Sounds interesting. Never heard of Cinsault before. Here is the description... A new Limited Release Eclipse wine is coming this July. Hailing from Languedoc France, Eclipse Nocturnal is a blend of Grenache...

What were you trying to do when you got that message?

The only thing that makes sense to me is if you tried to copy and paste something and got all of the coding for the page when you did the copy. I just tried doing a Copy all (Ctrl + A, then Ctrl + C) on one of the pages and pasted it in a reply, and the preview looked very much like what you...

I did a quick search and found this on a homebrew supply Facebook page from September 2016.. "We have been informed by Winexpert that the chaptalization packs in this year's dessert wines have been changed. You'll notice that the included pack has brown speckles in it. Winexpert has said that...

We grabbed some of those at Wegman's a while back. The kids went bonkers for them.

Here it is. There are two packets of 1118 like you mentioned. 30g of toasted oak and 400g chaptalization pack. The fpack is smaller than I would have thought, but I guess the dessert wine kit is half the volume of a regular kit. Are the dark spots in the chaptalization pack consistent with...

Not yet. I'll open it up tonight and snap a couple pictures while I'm working on the BB lemonade and post them.

Ok. I'll go with that. I'm going to start the blueberry lemonade tonight and then the red velvet once the bucket is freed up. Thanks!

Homebrew Supply has Inkbirds on sale for $23. Limited quantity, or so they state.

The kit showed up a couple days ago (it made it from Ohio to MD in slightly less than 24 hours after stopping for less than 10 minutes (if the timestamps are to be believed) at one of the shipping facilities) and was wondering if people do any yeast swaps on their dessert wines or if they need...

That's a neat idea. A couple questions. Isn't copper too soft to be hammered into anything? How long does such a process take? There must be some reaction that needs to take place, then transporting the resultant byproduct to the roots, I assume. A Google search sure has mixed reviews on...

Might be dumb, but is there any way to "burn"/flame it? Hollow out the stump, soak it in gasoline, and set a fire in there? Alternatively, possibly equally dumb, but is there a way to put some sort of impermeable barrier between the two plants and try the Toradon? I know you said the roots...

Good info. Another name for that mix is beer gas. That's how I've always heard to it referred as.

Looks like you can still add it to your cart at that price if anyone else is feeling brave.

Labelpeelers had it for $65, so I went for it. Will report back with progress updates.

Labelpeelers had it on clearance, so I pulled the trigger. Same with the Red Velvet dessert wine. And a couple silicone breathable bungs, since I strive to be super experienced. :db

Like most things, I just did a lot of research. I have a science background and like to figure out what all of the options are before making a decision. Frequently to the detriment of the calendar.
