Do y’all use them? Which ones do y’all use and how long do they last?

I‘ll be starting a Classic California Moscato Wine Kit in the next few days and would like to shoot for 12.5% ACL. I could add simple syrup, adjust the water, add 190 proof alcohol or a combination. What do you guys think will have the least effect on the profile of the Moscato. I‘m also open...

Anyone making this Pina Colada?

From: Florida 2020: RE: Rigged SEC Championship Game Florida Won!!! It was rigged from the start. The SEC demanded the game to be played in Georgia, and you know how Georgia likes to rig things. Fans were caught rigging the game. Extra players could be seen every down coming in from the...

Anyone have trouble getting kits because of the pandemic?

My daughter created this new with label. It's vinyl and a bugger to remove. So I'll use them on bottler I don't think will be returned. For home use I have put some on cling/plastic wrap and cut them out. Static cling holds them to the bottle great and it takes about 1 second to remove them...

I will make this kit next. It comes with elderflower for the primary. I also have 2 oz of extra elderflowe. Should I add extra, add it to 2nd fermentation or save it for another time? And how much should I add? Help please!

In those predawn hours, which are the toughest for insomniacs, Melony would whisper, "Fifteen years." And just before she would fall asleep, she would ask, "Are you still there, Sunshine?" What is hardest to accept about the passage of time is that the people who once mattered the most to us...

Has anyone used this yiest with white wine? How did it turn out?

I take the beginning SG and take the 2nd SP the next day, and it is always higher. So I know that the grape skins increase the SP. Over say 7 to 10 days I squeeze the skins a couple times a day. I think the act of squeezing the skins add to the SG and the alcohol over that time, but about how...

I started my Island mist kiwi pear kit last night. I capitalized it to bring the S.G. Up to 1.085 and it took more sugar that I would have thought. I have been making OB kits and they seem to take less sugar? I added the bentonite with a sub. Blender. And this morning we have fermentation! This...
