I am having a hard time getting the whole Specific Gravity deal. I've read this ( http://winemaking.jackkeller.net/hydrom.asp) and it helped a litte I guess. Is there something else I can study so that I can get my brain wrapped around this?
Well, here is my first attempt. It Joe's Ancient Orange Mead recipe. I didnt have raisons but I did everything else as specified. Its really primative. I didnt take SG or anything. My closet smells really good
I am going to start this today or tomorrow
Ok, I tried the merlot today. Not at all what I expected. It was really dry. Left a bad taste on the back of my tongue. The white Zinfandel was not nearly as dry as that but not sweet. Are all Merlot's that dry?
I am thinking I should try something a little sweeter with tomorrow nights...
My equipment kit, wine kit, all of the extra chemicals, extra air locks and assorted drilled and non drilled bungs have arrived. I am going to start the wine kit tonight and probably a 4 liter bottle of mead as well.
