I have that same airtight container for my dog food

I've got two local shops, both are little things... the one closest, though, is right next to OSU campus, and they also sell a crazy assortment of wines and craft beers, as well as having a pizza counter, so I'm not thinking they'll go anywhere. The other brew store is farther away, but...

Typically I like my wines. The Pumpkin I just bottled though.... :pee I've got a watermelon peach aging that I had added bananas to... it seems okay, but it stinks like rotten bananas. :( since watermelon is a pretty delicate flavor, it really kills the whole thing. Hoping it ages out, because...

The great thing about Olive Garden is the never ending pasta bowl. And that's about it.

I use my hubby's brew belt and one of the temperature regulators when it's cold. Also, you could consider buying a dog crate and putting the wine inside it ;) or an exercise pen. I do that a lot with my dogs to keep them away from stuff. I have dog crates in my car, and I put groceries and...

Welcome! This place is a great resource for making wine!

From "bleah" to "meh." Added 2 cups apple juice, 1.5 tsp vanilla, 3/4 cup stoli, 5 oz sugar, and a big glop of torani pumpkin pie syrup. It's okay. Tastes like pumpkin wine with apple. Maybe I will encourage other wines first so people are tipsy when they get to the pumpkin pie wine lol If I...

My business, which is not a wine business, is registered as an LLC. If something horrible happens, I can only lose the value of the business, and not my house!

Babysitting my 3 month old nephew for a few hours, then bottling after I fortify my wine. Decided NOT to fortify before babysitting... didn't think the new parents would handle tipsy aunt really well ;)

our LHBS keeps all yeast in a big walk-in freezer. I've been buying from them with no issues, I just give a yeast a day or so to come to room temp.

It tasted fine, but when I added the Bailey's it immediately "curdled."

taste results so far suggest adding some apple cider and a touch of vodka

Okay never, ever mix wine and Bailey's.

Hello! Welcome to the forums.

My pumpkin pie wine is, sadly, not up to snuff. I'd still like to try to save it for serving at Thanksgiving. As it is, it is too thin and sad. I was hoping for something a little heavier (dessert wine-ish) and instead it tastes weak. If I ever make it again, I am definitely doubling all the...

interested in how this ferments out, since the caramels contain both oil and milk.

1 gallon recipe 30oz Realime 3# frozen blueberries 1 crushed campden 1/2 tsp pectic enzyme Water to 1.3 gallons -------- Next day ------ 1/4 tsp tannin 1/2 tsp energizer 1 tsp nutrient EC 1118 I got 6 bottles out of this batch. If you are a big sweet/sour fan, this one's for you...

I just take the cork out directly through it :D

Yes, I add sorbate/kmeta/sweeten a week after fermentation and let it sit. Well I just won't worry about it then. It's a birthday batch, and I'm pretty sure we will consume all bottles over my birthday since it's always a holiday weekend. ;) I have another batch to bottle today, you can bet the...

I bottled a batch today that had last been racked and sulfited three months ago. I was so eager to get it bottled and free up a carboy that I had a brain fart - after the last one was done I facepalmed myself and realized I forgot to add kmeta right before I bottled. :slp I plan to drink this...
