My take is that it is a 'dumper'. Why waste time with spoiled wine? Buck up, you deserve better!

I wondered also, but the're thinking about it, so . . .

Quite a bit hot, but ok! I think that you'll get a better flavor around .090 (white), .010 (red), (or a bit lower).

I have never used yeast energizer, never had a problem.

. . . but more generic. you will find better results from KV-1116, or other strains. 1116 is a big fermenter as well.

0.994 looks good, time to lift a small glass and try it, see what it's all about! Also helps you to know whether you want to back-sweeten a little. Relax, trial and error!

Daaaaaaamn! You sound OK, but hope you heal up good. Although, I know that you are one hardy SOB! Broken ribs are no joke, I had 4 broken once, it wasn't a 'field day!"

Welcome back Dawg, I was wondering where you were!

LOL! You REALLY had a batch of wine last 7 years, ROFL! Lol, lol! I just don't see it!

I looked at these kits early, and I said to myself RC_212 would be my choice.

I like 'bone dry', but anywhere in between will suffice!

Finer Wine Kits! I will buy more. (no I'm not affiliated!) I just bought a SB kit (Tavolta)!

LOL, I thought I was the only one that saved and separated the 'dregs'!!

I made one, you won't be displeased! I'm a Zin-head!

Before you add simple syrup, add potassium sorbate, but you may want to wait a couple days to get near .995.
