Smurfe - Happy Mardi Gras to ya!!!! Thanks.... thats good to know. Hope I have the same experience with it. Have heard so/sothings about these kits - local shop was out of the CC and I needed to get it started - could not wait on shipping from George. That must be the issue - wine is...

My first mistake was buying this kit.... I have a WE VR Pinot Grigio.... Heres where Im at (pleae note this is my 3rd kit so Im a newbie aat this)... - added clearing chems - let sit for 3 weeks - rackedinto clean carboy - let sit for 1 week and no further sediment/clering has...

THANKS !!! I will sleep better tonight knowing this....

Saw the other tread in here it and it was more related to the types of corkers. Figured I would start a new thread... <?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> Just finished the bottle process for my first wine kit. Long story short - I’m not going to quit my...

I always rinse - but that's not saying much as I'm only 1 kit in. I have been using 1 step and even though it says you don't rinse, it seems to have a 'bleachy" smell/taste. I figure if that I added my water to the kit in the beginning stages - what harm could it do in the later? Might be...

Quick question on stabilizers. This is my 1st WE kit. That said, it came with potassium metabisulphite to stabilize. Also - in the instructions - it says to add more if I intend to age for more than 6 months (whick I intend to do!) What is the difference between Potassium Metabisulphite and...

Was actually looking at this one too... don't mind paying for it. How early did you start drinking it? Also - does anyone have any guidance on the spangols kits? I know there is quite a difference between a WE VR and a Selection - wanted to know if this holds true for Spangols too. Was...

My local brew store only carries WE and Cellar Craft. Im only 1 kit in (WE Selection Pinot Nior) but was looking for some suggestions. I want to try a pinot grigio next and was thinking a Sapngols Grand Cru. Any input on this line/brand. Looking to spend $100-$110 on a kit but...

Thanks.... glad I found this forum.... been looking/reading - lots of great advice! The SG, at all points of the process, were at the recommended levels in the instructions. guess i was just looking for some guidance/reassurance as I'm not a very confident wine maker(but I am a confident...

Decided on a WE Selection Pinot Nior for my 1st kit. Primary Fermentation: Went well I currently live in Pittsburgh and keeping my condo (have 3 - 16 ft windows) above 65 is an expensive task. I would say the wine was at63-65 temp for the whole process. Also, Primary took about 3-4 extra...
