    Apple fermentation

    first attempt at a batch of apple wine from juice. Started as I have many other batches, in a bucket with cloth cover. No action the first 30 hours or so, then very light bubbling. All the other wines i’ve Made ferment very actively. This one hardly at all. Started with 6 quarts Of 100% organic...

    when to add cinnamon sticks

    When should I add some cinnamon sticks to a batch of apple wine? I’m assuming after the first racking?

    Pasteurizer

    Think this is for milk, wonder if it works for wine? Would a person ever want/need to pasteurize wine?

    Thanks everyone. I’m a total beginner, but really want to learn how to do it right. No doubt I will ask some stupid questions and will have difficulty explaining things to the seasoned winemakers, but I’ll be asking with good intentions, hope everyone understands...
