Decided on this one as my first kit as I have many people asking me to make a white. The kit looked quite intresting and a cross between two styles. Anyone make this kit before and your thoughts? Should be making it next week.

Cover the primary with SOMETHING. I use a loose fitting lid. The air-lock on lid is not necessary, but some prefer it.I am in the process of making a Mezza Luna Red using the same kit, should start tonight, still unclear about fermenting with a lid and air lock or no lid. Are your instructions unclear about this as well?
Related to mezza Luna white I started this week also. The kit includes f pack to be added during clearing. I don't like to steer away from instructions but I like dry wines will this addition make it noticeably sweet? According to we website the wine is off dry. Any suggestions on not adding f pack or should I have added it during fermentation to do away with added sugar later. Thanks for you input.

I just bottled a Mesa Luna White about 3 months ago and everyone loves it, including my wife who is very picky about whites. She will only drink bone-dry whites (when she does) but loves this one. The F-pack adds more body and flavor than sweetness, but does add some.
When the time comes to add the F-pack, take a large sample sample and try it dry, then add a teaspoon or so of the F-pack to get a feel for how it changes the flavor. You could add all, half or none to suit your personal taste. IMHO I like dry wines too but added the whole F-pack. You won't be disappointed with this wine.
