It was super clear and only had a small trace in the filter when finished. It just took forever!

I will have to visit more often. Now I have to purchase an electric filter reallywasn't happy with the gravity because it took 2 hours to filter one 6 gallon batch.

looking good!

Wedding wine blues!!! Well, selected the kits as above and got started. Made all 3 at the same time plus 2 others.A lot of work to make 5 kitsall at the same time! After they finished and bulk aged for 2 months I started bottling. At bottling I filtered thru a gravity filter. I wanted to...

I have 5 different kits going right now. I keep the boxes that the Kits came in and Ikeep every thing from each kit in the box it came with. I do thisso that I don't mix up the F-packs, chemicals etc. Don't know why I started doing it this way but after seeing that someone else had aproblems I...

Looking good! I love the way you post the pictures worth a 1000 words.

Thank you "Fruity", I have given you a new name. Thank you for the update and information about the aging. Sounds like your wine aged 3 to 4 months and good to hear how wonderful it is. I don't know if you bulk aged it before bottling? I love the way you describe the way the wine taste. I think...

Hey Waldo, One of the storm shelters that I was looking at can be found at http://www.usstormshelters.com/original.html Not sure if this like your or not but from the pictures you posted it sure likes the same. It comes in 2 different sizes and looks pretty basic. My land is flat and I don't...

HeyWaldo, I have a cab kit that I got from George and going to start it as soon as my 3 primarys are empty from my son's wedding wine. I was also wondering about all the oak powder and chips. Glad you went over it before I got started. Looks great and like everyone else can't wait to follow...

Hunter, you are going to love the Green Apple!

Sounds great Appleman, Waiting to see how this one turns out.

Thanks again Appleman, That is exactly what I was looking for!

Thanks Appleman, That is what I will do. I was really surprised as to how similar they were when mixing up the must. They looked, tasted and smelled exactly the same. I expected some difference but they both seemed to have a strawberry base. They all use the same yeast, etc. I don't see how they...

I have never seen such a low number of posts on this website. Guess that asking about how to make strawberry wine is not the right thing to do on the website. Sure wish if there was anyone out there with some strawberry winereceipes would share them with me.
