Got this one going last night. Anyone else snag one of these? Should be a nice blend. Dumped about 40% of the F-pack into the Primary, added a cup of simple syrup to bump ABV up to ~12.8%. Yeast swap (of course) BA11 for EC1118. Already up and snap, crackle and popping away this AM only 12hours later. Happy yeast!

What a coincidence..!!!
I bought 2 of that kit a couple of months ago, started 1 on March 30 and put the other in the garage.
Last night I took the kit out of the garage as I wanted to start it but didn't have spring water with me, so it is getting kicked off today.

On the first kit I added almost the entire f-pack at the end and the SG ended at 1.003 and the PH ~3.27

On this 2nd kit I plan to add half the f-pack up front and half to back sweeten at the end. Shooting for a final SG of 1.000 after f-pack addition.

The first kit went dry to 0.994
 
I did just recently...LOL

It was pretty good but I didn't right down any tasting notes.
I'll open a bottle soon and let you know.:ib
 
Don't see how they can sell for that price and keep the doors open and lights on......... :?

There was only $22 difference between FVW and HBS and $8 of that was a special one time use 10% off coupon for being a new customer.........
 
What did everyone do on this kit regarding the F-Pack? I opened the box yesterday and it seems like allot in it.

Any thoughts would be appreciated

cheers
 
I have mine clearing right now. I bought it on clearance from one of our great sponsors, Label Peelers. Mine was under $100, but ended around $120 with shipping.

I added my entire f-pak after fermentation. It brought my final sg to 1.004 which to me is not too sweet for a white.
