Rocky I dont hate anybody especially a fellow wine maker....I know lots of people that like to smoke there cigars and enjoy a glass, as certain smokes actually go good with wine, but there are soooooooo many baccys for pipe smoking I don't even know where to begin, as of now I am smoking some...

I apologize if this is a little off topic, but I have recently discovered pipe smoking, and I was sitting on my back patio, wondering how many other of my fellow wine makers do the same...I have a Super Tuscan, Ross D' Avola, Chilean Pinot Noir, ready to kick summer off with, but not sure about...

I just added the F-pack to the one I had clearing...I bought two kits so I could do 30 bottles of each I put both F-packs of the Hard lemonade and its not to sweet, I don't think it needs any hard liquors/spirits, you can always add that per glass, with the discretion of the person drinking. I'm...

Yeah its done, turned out nice.

Well I think its finally happened out of about 40 kits I got my first stuck fermentation on a new twisted mist kit, I did two of them at the same time to get 30 bottles of both Lime margarita, and pink lemonade, one is done and ready to F-pack, the other is sitting at 1.010 and wont budge, I...

Well if IB says its good, I gotta try it, on my list for next order, now the question is do I get two just incase the apocalypse is this year, I mean I have to have something to live for. :gb

SERIOUSLY you guys think this is better than the RJS Super Tuscan?!....thats a pretty high bar but if you say so, I think Ill have to get this kit and investigate. :HB

Roy: when you stabilized and fined, during the clearing process did it have a bit of a haze to it or become crystal clear, and then hazing after f-pack was added? Just put some supr-kleer in mine and waiting...just curious so I know what to look for....thanks :b

robie: I have made about 25 of these kits over the years and always wanted to experiment, and this bubbly idea intrigues me, love to buy new play toys to make better quality "stuff", I wouldn't have a clue how to do this, but if you do, experiment, please do a write up with pics or it didn't...

That explains alot thanks gonzo. :d

So it wasn't to sweet when you put the whole f-pack in at the end.....I have done a bunch of island mists and they all would be to sweet, almost jolly rancher -ish if you added everything.

Been a year on mine and just bottled after bulk aging and man this stuff is GOOOD!!, I couldn't stop drinking the split I had left over. gonna be ordering another for sure!

So I missed the boat on this the last few years but want to try this season, is there any tricks to this one, do you make the same as other Island mist kits where you up the sg with sugar at primary, and then use have the f-Pack, also from what I'm seeing they are splitting up into a combo pack...

Thanks IB I did another search and found some threads where it was a nightmare, I thought it was wierd but wanted to double check, fortunatly I have cheescloth, and a cloth bag that came with my Winery series left over.

Forgot to add this is the All Juice masters edition.
