I've made a couple of bottles of sparkling lemon (skeeterpee) and cider wine, and although they taste delicious they are always cloudy with sediment at the bottom of the bottle.
I make these in 1L pop bottles.
My current process is simple: follow whatever recipe I'm using for making wine using champaign yeast and at 1.050 transfer to pop bottles and add a teaspoon or two of sugar, seal, invert a couple times to dissolve sugar and then let sit for a couple of months in my furnace room. When I'm ready to drink I chill in a fridge or outside (it's cold outside) for a couple days.
It is absolsolutely crazy how effervescent these come out, you take one sip and it explodes into a cloud in your mouth. I absolutely LOVE them!
Please let me know how I can change my process to make the wine clear as the cloudiness isn't the most appetizing look...
Thanks!
