Hi... The (nick)name is Carant. So glad to be here. I've been making wine for two years now....my fave is apple. I've got 12 gallons of apple going right now, 24 gallons grapefruit, and a few gallons left of Ginger. Love to all!!!

Welcome to WMT, Carant! Sounds like you have lots to contribute!

Welcome.

Got a question, what is the ending SG of your apple wine.

Hi Carant and welcome to WMT! Seems there is always a thread going on about apple wine. You'll be right at home here.

Indeed

Thanks for the warm welcome guys.I do lots of variations of apple wine (and lots of tweaking)... But I'm a lifelong learner too. I'm all too happy to learn(and help)!

The ending SG depends... I had a question in another thread about a particular method of making apple wine that I use (frozen concentrates) that always ends in an FG of 1.03... Other methods have a Final Gravity of 1.000 or less( and I stabilize these accordingly). I'm a bulk ager (and tweaker ) so I always start my apple wines at a pretty high SG... And let them mellow out and bring out the notes of the spices and essences that I fancy).
