I just finished a Moscato kit I ordered from Amazon and it's not bad, but it's lacking some flavor. Since I can't make an F-Pac with Moscato grapes, does anyone have any suggestions for what might be a nice flavor complement for the wine and how to go about adding the flavor to my six gallons...

I began six gallons of blueberry wine two days ago and followed the recipe exactly. I waited overnight to pitch the yeast. After pitching the yeast the directions said to attach the cover to the primary. I did and we left our house for several hours afterward. When I cam home the must had...

Still working on my strawberry wine. I added Na Meta and K Sorbate, waited 24 hours and added an f-pac as described here on the forums. Now, two days later, there are very small bubbles climbing the side of the carboy. I still need to back sweeten the wine. Should I add more meta and...

I sampled the wine to see how it tasted and wasn't impressed with the taste after the first racking. It tasted very yeasty (word?) Will the taste improve after it has time to settle in this carboy over the next several weeks? Also if I want to sweeten the taste do I do that right before I...

This is my first unsupervised attempt at making wine and I fear I've screwed it up. I made my wine as the recipe directed, but after I pitched the yeast I put the lid on my airlock container instead of a towel (that I now have re-read and saw that it specified). My specific gravity is under 1...
