Quick question, how much potassium sorbate does one add to a 23L batch to prevent re fermentation when back sweetening?

1/2 TSP per gallon.

Ok, so I'm not crazy. I was second guessing myself. Turns out I do know how to read the instructions on the bag lol

As for what am I doing today, it's just me and the crib midget today. Mommy went to see a movie and visit family. Should be an interesting day

Just bottled my second batch of skeeter pee! Man I love this stuff! Still haven't decided if it's worth the trouble using beer bottles or not.

Plowboy. You'll do fine. Momma leaves me home alone with a month old and a 2 1/2 yr old. It gets crazy! Just be thankful we still get to go fishing.

It was a easy day. I don't see why my wife gets so stressed out about being home. Not going to say that to her but I'm thinking it lol

Started a three gallon batch of blueberry wine all from blueberry juice SG is 1.086.

Opps forgot the pics

 

[plowboy]

Yep, that's blue alright.

This buying a house thing sure put the breaks on my wine making. Went to see another house today that was more within our price range. No massive wine cellar but there is a utility room that is begging for some harlequin style shelving lol.

I decided to help out a Boy Scout ranch and split some firewood with a friend - so we left on Thursday and came back late Friday night. I was able to get these pics in prior to the storms moving in !

Today I finally decided to do something with the three gallons of Orange Blossom Honey I brought back from Florida a couple of years ago. I started a 12 gallon batch of Mead. The honey had partially crystallized but easily dissolved in hot water. I added some acid, tannin and nutrients now just waiting for everything to cool down so I can add the yeast. I selected Lalvin D47 I hope it protects the orange blossom aroma while fermenting.

Soccer in the morning, preceded by cleaning/delabeling a few cases of bottles, dropping cars off for maintenance, grocery shopping. Then I sanitized bottles and bottled my 2013 juice bucket Valpolicella. Now getting ready to cook dinner.

Helping with harvest at a local winery. Picked, destemmed and crushed about 40 lugs of Vidal. Also pressed 90 gallons of a grape they have growing on the property that no one has been able to identify. It makes a wonderful white wine. Almost like a muscadine but not.
