If I decide to add the apples how should I do it? Slice the apples and throw them in for a couple weeks or juice them somehow?

One thing I can tell you with this one. It is not a quick drinker. I made 2 gallons of it last year. Tried a couple bottles during aging process and they progressively improved in taste. Tried one just about 1 yr after bottling and it was excellent.

6 gallons. I bought the fruit in 5 lb bags.

Sorry to waste your time Julie. I have figured out that it was a referment. I forgot I added rains about 1-2 weeks ago.

I did a blackberry db and added 10 lbs plus a fpac afterwards and boy it is delicious. Yes I always freeze my fruit before using.

My wine has been aging for a few months. I was thinking about adding some fruit to give it slight fruit flavor or aroma plus the grape flavor. Any thoughts on how to do it and what fruit to add? Should I use a f-pac or float actual fruit in the carboy? What fruits go best with Riesling...

I added spices to my pumpkin wine. I added Allspice, cinnamon stick, and nutmeg. Could have that started fermentation again? The reason I ask is because I checked on it a few days later and something grew in it. I did 2 1 gal jugs and same thing happened to both. See the image. Any...

I add 1 camp don't tablet per gallon. 1 to nutrient per gallon.

Seems that every time I make wine either from fresh fruit or juice from home winery, I get a sulfur smell. What am I doing wrong? How much nutrient should I be adding? What is the difference between energizer and nutrients? I have a red zin juice I am starting and don't want to have the...

You can, but be careful on the amount you use. You can't back out when you add to much.

7 to10 pounds of fruit per gallon.

I do the same thing. Whenever i find a good deal on fruit, first thing i think of is can you make wine with. Then i get on here or jack keller to find a recipe.

Damn the bad luck. My relative texted me a few mins ago and said the birds stripped the cherries clean from the trees. Maybe next year.

What is the quickest way too pit them? I am getting about 30 pds.

I am receiving free cherries from a relative. I have a few questions though. 1. How do you freeze them? Pitted unpitted? 2. Dow have to pit them when using? 3. How many pounds should be used per gallon? 4. Is there a recipe that someone can send me? Thanks in advance for the responses.

I use a piece of paper with print on it. If I can read the print clearly I feel I am good. Of course that does not work with reds.

Yes the stink did go away

Ads more flavor to the wine.

Whoops!!! i added 1/2 tsp instead of 1/4 to one of my 1 gallon batches. Did i just ruin that batch? Should I dump it or will it be ok?

Thanks for all the input.
