I have 17 lbs of frozen Mulberries that are thawing for a 3 gal batch of wine. There are stems on all the berries that I really don't want to remove. I have heard that one may crush the berries with a wine press http://www.finevinewines.com/p-478-5517.aspx and not have to remove the stems. I do...

I bought two cans of Vintners Harvest Blackberry and made six gallons of wine. During racking, I kept smelling an odor, like B.O. After checking myself, I determined that it was coming from the wine. Before bottling I found the wine to be thin bodied, so off to Sam's Club for some blackberries...

I live in south Alabama ( I know; I am blessed! ) and I would like to spot some Mayhaw berries</font></font> for next years wine making. I had never heard of them before today. Anyone down here know where some are. Also need some Aronia (Choke) Berries</font></font>. Any help would be appreciated.

I think a very good and easy to keep resolution would be to start drinking more fruit wine in 2011. There are many reasons for this. The first obvious one is that fruit wine tastes good and is a great alternative to having grape wines all the time. They are fun to make (if you are into...

I can't seem to find any information on how to make an F-pack. I know I've seen it somewhere, but can't find it. I will apologize now for it being right under my nose and me not seeing it&gt;

Before I order, I was wanting to find out if anyone has tried the Mosti Mondiale Vinifera Shiraz/Merlot Kit. How is it?

A 2 gallon batch of Jalapeno cooking wine. I used a recipe from Jack Kellers website: http://winemaking.jackkeller.net/reques32.asp We like to cook Mexican dishes occasionally and will use it for such, and marinating meats. Jack say's " It does something to spaghetti sauces that is...

My wife and I are thinking of making a 5 gallon batch of Welches White grape wine and adding nuances from fruit. We want to arrive at a Riesling type flavor, just not with Riesling grape. It all started with me making a 1 gallon Welches white grape and the flavor being really to our liking. I'm...

I absolutely LOVE the smell of wine fermenting in my wine room. I find myself going in there several times each day (just to get a smell) and watch the bubbles in the air locks. It's probably a good thing that I'm not a rich man, as I would be making way too much wine. Right now I have 3 gal...

I have been using #9 X 1.50 agglomerate corks from FVW's because they came with my wine kit (also from FVW). My problem is, man are they ever tough to get out of the bottle! Do I need a smaller diameter? Am I doing something wrong? I soak them for about ten minutes in K-meta before bottling...

Fruit Wines are Healthier than Grape Wines – ORAC Values One of the most important reasons to start drinking more fruit wine this year is also because they are very good for your health. Eating a healthy diet and having an active lifestyle are critical for maintaining good health. Fruits...

Preplanning for my wine this year, I decided to try my hand at building a rather cheap wine storage counter. Being I don't have anything but a skill saw and a sander, I kept the build simple. It will hold a little over 200 @ 750ml.

Does a fast fermentation ruin the wine, and if so, what does one do to slow it down?

Newbie here. I was wondering about all the good properties (health benefits) of fruit and berries and what happens to them when they are fermented. Do they increase, leave due to the fermentation, or do they stay in the wine? TYIA!

A Newbie here. I can't seem to find a recipe for Jelly Palm Wine. There are lots of "Jelly" recipe's online, but none for wine. So, I decided to wing it. Last fall I picked some fruits from my palm tree. I would welcome any comments about what I should do, shouldn't have done, etc with this...
