    Stuck/ slow blueberry wine

    I'll try Diluting it with water a bit to see if it helps. I've tried restarting with some ec 1118 which i believe is a champagne yeast by starting it in a bit of light sugar water then over a hour or so slowly added some of the juice into it until I had about a half a gallon of yeast with wine...

    Stuck/ slow blueberry wine

    So when I was making this I had too much to fit into one Carnot so I had to fill a one gallon jug with it. I just checked the gravity on both the 5 gallon and the one gallon.

    dragon blood wine not degassing?

    yes, the reading a newspaper through it is what I was told when looking for the clarity of the wine. Using sparkoloid mine cleared in 2 days and I have bottled it now a week after sweetening it. I found that it has a tart almost sour taste. I'm hoping that it will taste better after a little...

    dragon blood wine not degassing?

    This is my first attempt at wine making. It went easily enough at the start until it came to degassing. I'm using a wine whip in a drill and it didn't bubble or fizz at all. Kept trying for an hour with no bubbles still so I continued to adding the sparkoloid. It's been a week since and it...
