I tasted some off the stirring spoon. im not a wine drinker. i make it for my wife and friends. i went on with the process and we will see what happens. its in the clearing stage now.

yes everyday

yes gravity at beginning was 1.070 at end was .998. i always used a vacuvin to degas. this is the first wine where i didnt have any gas

I made a wine expert kit, Pink Mascato. It fermented in 7 days, when I racked it into a carboy yesterday added sorbate and went to degas there was no gas, not one bubble.does this mean there is something wrong

Chris, let the wine age for at least 3 months. I thought mine was kinda sour to but after aging for awhile the berry flavor and sweetness came out

that is yeast nutrient and energizer keep stirring the must that will mix in. stir the must a couple times a day if possible

Well after aging the DB for 3 months I bottled it and does have a very good berry flavor and people love it. I do think I have it a little too sweet but they love it and its almost gone

So far the only one sleeping on the deck is ME

I just wanna let everyone who helped me with my Skeeter Pee know that it turned out great. everyone loves this stuff and I am now on my 4th batch right now.

the reason i wanna filter is to keep the fine setiment out of my wine

I need to know what my options are for filtering wine? I know the best way is with the all in one but I dont have that kinda money right now. is there another good way to filter wine

I followed the recipe to a T The SG now after clearing and stabilizing and sweetening is 1.030 and still has a very bitter taste. my skeeter pee turned out great though

Yes I did that and tasted it yesterday and it pretty dry yet and hardly any berry flavor. I used two 3lb bags of 3 berry blend and a 1lb bag of blackberrys

Is DB suppose to be a dry wine? I just made a batch and its clear, when I tasted it, its very dry and not much berry flavor

Does everyone heat there sugar in water like the recipe says or do you just add it to the other ingredients like the dragons blood
