I have been saving the flowers from my wifes plants for about 6 months. I have the flowers in the freezer. Some are dried and some are not. Do they all have to be dried? Can there be a mixture? What is the best base to use? If this turns out good will make yearly. Thanks in advance for...

Do the skins look like juice, in bag that you order from M&M? I hope this will do the trick.

I received my skins this week. Do you recommend putting them in my fruit bag and then in my bucket or straight in the bucket (fermentation). Wanna get this rolling this weekend.

How many per gallon 1 or 2?

I bought some fresh cranberries after the holidays when were cheaper. Looking to make a cranberry or a cranberry blackberry. Has anyone done a black cran before? If so what ratio was used? One other question I have, should I use a red or white Welch's grape concentrate? Trying to add more...

Thanks for the input everyone.

Will these companies deliver?

I would also like another source to compare. Any other sources would be appreciated.
