I've never made wine with mesquite beans, but I have used them in beer. Never boil the beans, you will extract to much tannin. Break up the husks and soak for about an hour at 150 to 158 degrees, the seeds are bitter while the husk/shell has a fair amount of sugar so you don't want to crack or...

Age makes wine better, except for that one that I didn't stabilize and they all blew up.

I was messaged for a followup so I decided to post it in the tread. A little follow up, I used 5 cups of everclear and filled the rest of the 3 gallons with the wine when it was a little over 1.030 or about 10% ABV to give me a final ABV of 20.5%. It was at 1.050 at 11PM and the next morning...

I often get secondary fermentation, I added PB2 and coco power to a beer after it was dry and fermentation kicked back up, I added blueberry concentrate to a blueberry wine after it was dry and moved to a carboy, that was secondary fermentation. That said, with out adding additional sugars you...

I've been making beer off and on since the 90's and was getting in to it pretty heavy and the wife wanted a little wine so I've made a few batches. I've done fruit wine from my Loquat tree, the wife says it is my best. I've done several kits including a port according to the instructions...

This is a little convoluted, so please bear with me. I was thinking of taking a Winexpert Tempranillo Kit with skins and starting it according to the instructions. Then once it hits about 1.045 to 1.040 putting a little under 2.75 gallons on to just over a quart of 190 proof everclear and a...
