Lovely Wife

Coach, As Greg stated, the simple syrup is the way to go. Make it by disolving the sugar you want into a small amount of water on the stove. Low heat is enough but stir frequently to avoid burning. There are good guides out there that can tell you how much to add per gallon to raise your...

Deal for sure if you don't want a real high end finished product. It will ferment and it will get you drunk. Is Troy here anymore? He had some experience with that.

Greg, While a starter would help don't be so sure that fermentation isn't underway. 24 hours is too soon to tell. More info will help us help you. Do you have your gravity readings from when you started?

Glad I never get upset with anybody on here and lose my cool? :a1 ..... :a1

Dan, Did not mean to challenge you....perhaps it's just my manner. I don't return things very often to stores, and never send anything back to the kitchen. :d

Dan, How many primaries did you put through that bucket? I have the same but figure it's due to steady use. I would never consider returning a zip lock baggie after successfully bagging my left overs. Wine making takes wear and tear on things. Just like everything. Everything has a...

The LOVE FORUM is a little ole' place where, WE can GET together.... Love Forum, baby Love Forum...... Glass Carboyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy......... busted...
