ANy update on this Wine. I am about to start a batch this weekend. Bought the double pack on sale at Costco for $53. Not bad. Was also wondering? Since it comes with 2 Concentrait bags what if instead of making 2 batches. You just made one batch using like a Bag and a half of the concentrate.

I left mine in the Primary untill Dry then Racked, Stablized and Added the Sparkloid. It has been 4 days and IS Crystal Clear.

Well I had to Sample it and It is Yummy. Still needs to be back sweetened. But just used a simple syrup in my glass to sweeten and was nice.

I racked it. Did the Sobate and sufite and Sparkoid. I am just suprized how clear it got so Fast. If I can Rush to My Second racking and back sweetin and let it sit for a litle longer it just means I can start on another Wine :b. I know Rush Is a Bad word in Wine Making but this is a fast drinker.

My First Batch of SP. Used the Sparkaloid and in 3 days it is Clear. Do you think I can move on to Racking and Back Sweeting. Or should I let it sit for another week and a half. It is Hot here and I want to Dig in :h

When do you draw the Line on Cleaning a Dirty Bottle? I just started making wine a few weeks ago. But started preparing "Wine Country" (Thats what me and my Wife call my Corner of the basement) a couple months ago. Started Collecting Bottles and getting them ready and have a good 60 to start...
