Dawg, my SG reading tonight (3 days from bottling) was 1.000!! I made juice!! IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO?!

Yeah, turns out I didn't make wine. I made juice. 😢

Hey All! Disaster has struck! I just did an SG reading on my 5 week plus wine--ready to bottle Saturday--and it's just slightly over 1.000. That's pretty much what it was on Day 1. What did I do wrong? I followed the kit instructions to the letter! There is very little alcohol in it, nothing...

Thank you! I didn't have a packet called kmeta, but I added sulfites at the end, so I'm assuming it's the same idea. Thanks!

That makes sense! Thank you!

This sounds great, except for the part where I don't know what kmeta is! What is kmeta?

I felt like I read something somewhere that suggested you had to get it OUT of the carboy when it was ready. This is excellent, and thank you all! I'll let everyone know how it tastes ... wow. I made wine!!

You're like a hero, but in wine!

I liked it. I feel like I'm home. *sniff*

Never @KCCam ! :D

You guys are both hilarious! And "hilarious" is a place where our two nations meet--we both use the "ou" in hilarious!

Nice! I've been avidly reading the "tweaking" posts. Not the twerking posts--not going to twerk for wine. But the tweaking of the less expensive kits sounds BRILLIANT. When I make my next batch, I'm going to give it a try.

We're EVERYWHERE! Ha ha.

I'm very much still at the "follow the instructions to the letter" stage of wine making. Tweaking is somewhere in the future (which I hope to figure out through this forum!)

That's where I live! We're new Costco members. I can't wait to price compare!

Wait a minute ... COSTCO SELLS WINE KITS? Is that true?
