James, My Skittle wine turned out the same color as yours. It all depends on the amount of color candies you have. We must of had more yellow and orange candies than the others.

I used EC-1118

I made the Starburst wine but what I did to get most of the wax out is by after melting the candy down, I let it sit for a week. But a couple times a day, I used a spoon to take the wax layer off of the top.

I started my Skittle wine at 1.092 and finished at .995 using 1118. Josh, Did you check the date on your yeast? Is it out of date?

Here is my Skittle Wine....

I wouldn't think so. If you are fermenting it til it stops, it should be all good!! If you planned on crashing it around 1.010, you missed it bigtime!

I think I will stabilize next weekend and make a concoction with a small bag of Skittles to sweeten it up a tad.

When I added Super-Kleer it cleared it up quick also. I racked my Skittle wine yesterday and this is what I have.

Welcome back!!!

Yup!! This is going to clear like orange kool-ade for sure!!

This is what it looks like today. It seems to be clearing up. I will give it a week or so and then I will rack. Then let it sit for another month or so.

No, I didn't use anything for the starch. How much beano would you use for 5 gallons?

I added the Super Kleer 8hrs ago and its starting to clear up.

I think my Skittle Wine will look like Apfelwein! I tasted it today and I'm hooked!

HAHAHAHAHA!!!! I was wondering if there was more yellow and orange Skittles in the bags. I racked it, degassed and added Super Kleer this afternoon.

My Skittle wine looks like mud water... What's with that!?!?!

Here is a question for you guys, Do I need to add the Kmeta if I want to filter the wine??
