There are not many choices locally, but I have found some alexander-Riesling concentrate... I am thinking about getting some.
Any thoughts on this product?
I found the instructions on line;
a few items that caught my eye are:
1. Rx calls for 5 tsp yeast nutrint per 5 gal;
the Wyeast nutrient calls for 1/2 tsp for that amount of beer.
Is this correct?
Are grapes that much less nutrient rich than barley ?
2.
The instructions - for an 8% light bodied white-wine - call for, eg:
Cans of Concentrate: 1 Can
Water: 12 Cans
Sugar: 4-1/4 lbs.
Yeast Nutrient: 5 tablets or 5 tsp.
Pectic Enzyme: 4 tablets or 4 tsp.
Grape Tannin: 2 tsp.
Yeast: 1 pkg. Champagne
Starting Specific Gravity: 1.056
I am not sure the size of the can; but in the instructions it suggested getting a 5 gal carboy;
How much wine will the kit actually make?
