Welcome to the site.

How much sugar did you use? I want to come close to over sweeten but not do it. Thanks.

My apricot I did not put in a bag. I can't believe the cap on that. When I got up in the morning I would lift the lid and could hear it trying to escape. Then punch the cap and boom a bad smell for a minute all that gass coming up. So fun. During the day I would do it all day long...

Thanks for the advice. I plan on bottleing in the next couple weeks I thought the eliminator a would work for that long. If I decide to age any longer I will add water or a like wine. The dragons blood and apricot I could add water but the wine kit Piont on the left I would add a like wine. I...

Just letting them age now for a bit

Welcome back and thank you for your service brother.

I have done 2 kits. Both Fontana. The first was a cab. Amazon prime for $29. It is normally $39. It as pretty good for $29. The 2nd is a Fontana Pinot Noir. Amazon prime $42. It is on its 3rd week and racked it tonight and had a taste. It was really good. Not even kidding I could drink it as...

I really need to keep a log! 6 gallon of Pinot Noir just racked the second time. Not even kidding I could drank this one right now. It was awesome. I can't wait to bottle it 6 gallon dragons blood is doing well. Degassed and added sparkoloid 6 gallon of apricot still had a lot of apricot...

I just ordered one. I don't think I will have a problem with longer than 6 months. Lol I don't think I fill more than two bags at bottling time. Do you keep yours in the fridge?

I have a friend that has a bunch of grapes. A few hundred pounds easy. She makes jelly/jam and lets everyone pick all they want. She told me I can have them all if I want. Whenever I make wine I always give her a bottle to try. I can't wait till they get leaves this year so I can hopefully...

I am fairly new to wine making. Even though I am working 23 gallons right now. So for bottleing... I drink Franzia fruity red sangria and sunset blush. I always have a box in my garage fridge. If I am feeling some easy drinking wine this is my go-to. I am thinking about getting the 3lt bags...

Welcome to the site. Sound like you have more experience than me. I am an uber noob.

Welcome to the site. I was stationed in the UP for a couple of years. I loved it up there. Holy wa der eh.

My wife loves mike's hard strawberry lemonade. I think I will try something like. Think it would work with frozen concentrate limeade? After reading this I bout me some frozen blueberries. If I start that batch I will give updates.

I have been making wine for about 10 months. Just joined this site this week. I looked at tons of hand pumps, filters, brake bleeders and motorized pumps. The all in one was popping up everywhere in forums. Nothing but good stuff to say about them. I messaged the company and he emailed me...

I was searching for different things on different days about equipment, recipes and and general help with my wines. This site always had the answers. Glad I joined.

My name is Harry. I have brewed beer on and off for the last 25 years. Mostly off. I retired 1 May 2017 from the USAF. I started making wine and think this is my new retired hobby. I made a few 1 gallon batches of store bought juice and each batch is getting better. I made a 6 gallon batch...
