just now found the time to make this batch happen. There was a major sale on just standard apple jucie from the wally world. under two bucks per gallon. so I just made a three gallon batch, 3) gallons apple juice 11) small cinnamon sticks 4) tsp cloves 8) ounces honey and brown...

So I just ~ Just opened a bottle of my Pinot Noir that has been silently sitting in a bottle for about 6 months, I could not explain to people how it tasted in conversation, but I could paint them a great visual As I sit here, blank canvas before me; just awaiting each word to be typed...

Oh where is my label making software ! It's early morning and I am just goofy enough today

Keeps it simple then and I thank you. I just thought too much. thought the aireration caused by racking would offset the kmeta's ability. so, COOL ! I think it's easy drinking form here !

It's just a cool little thing I decided to set myself against with the timing of working with the wines. Figured when I start labeling them, it will be called " Full moon " just a little of my old enjoyment for the spirits ;-) and an interesting conversation ;-) But I always...

Alright, thanks to all of you and yes even Wade had an answer or two I think it's all water under the bridge now excpet for one thing.. I read K-meta has a 2 to 3 month life when bulk aging. now, 1/4 teaspoon to 5/6 gallons, I do 3 gallons so I do about an 1/8. but...

Have a batch going now. just racked it for the 3rd time. it's now 2 months old. " I only work on my wines on full moons. " It's my little thing. but I always know when it's wine working time. any how, yes, I didn't follow the quick kit instructions for 14 day bottling, I am aging this...

Ok then, my mistake. i never degassed until I was ready to bottle. I just assumed it was best not to degas as to keep as much CO2 in the wine as possible to deter any oxygen from spoiling the wine. live and learn I'll reprogram myself for future batches`

Now that makes sense ! I know it wasn't a 100% degassed " In my opinion " no electric whipper yet. so it was the old whip with the hand till it falls off, then whip more and inbetween vaccum pump it , But as much as I thought I degassed, I am sure it wasn't Enough, enough. I have...

Hey everyone ! back for a quick question. I bottled 6 gallons of some home design wine about 3 weeks ago. this batch was a 6 gallon batch, store bought concentrates " welchers " style., turned out tasting fantastic red grape and black cherry. now I did the primary, racked, waited...

I at this moment don't have enough bottles around to answer this one. If you took 9 750 ml bottles and put them in a square, what are the length of the sides ? Looking to start a simple weekend project of making a wine rack out of diamond shapes and each cell to hold 9 bottles...

Tanner and corky ? Great looking pups, Makes me want another bull dog

Wade, Bought some this afternoon ! Gonna give it a go and keep it as a routine~
