    3 year old wine kit = brown wine?

    after adding the f-pack the wine is now much less brown than it was. when i shine a spotlight through it the light coming out the other side is definitely ruby colored. is there any difference between aging in the bottles and aging in the carboy? the instructions said to let it age for 3...

    Hello from Carlisle, PA

    Stouffer's of Kissel Hill? I will have to look into Stout's festival. I have seen signs for that place before, never made it out though.

    I'm from PA, USA...I can barely keep track of how much I make so I know the authorities have no idea either :)

    gallons per year?

    How many gallons are you allowed to make per year? I know with beer it's 100 gallons in a single adult home and up to 200 gallons in a 2+ adult home. What is it with wine? And do I have to add the amount of beer I make with the amount of wine I make, or is that seperate?

    I have to ask, what is an F pac?

    wow you guys are serious! I guess I'm so used to brewing beer...it's usually ready to bottle or keg in less than a month...I have 2 carboys and 3 buckets and I have trouble keeping them filled.

    Hello from Carlisle, PA

    LBC is awesome. I have heard a lot about Bubbs (I think it might be Bube's), but I have never made it out there, little bit of a trip for me. I also enjoy going to Appalachian Brewing Company in Harrisburg...and the Troeg's Brothers, also from Harrisburg make a fine brew.

    3 year old wine kit = brown wine?

    It doesn't taste bad...not as sweet as White Zinfandel usually is but I haven't added the F-pack yet or the finings, stabilizers etc. The "carbonation" kind of threw me off since it's still fermenting. I think it's getting nearly done fermenting so I'll give it another taste when I check the...

    WHY did you start making Wine?

    I started making beer because I was tired of paying $30-$50 for a case of good stuff...which led me into making wine. I just wish it were legal to make whiskey :)

    3 year old wine kit = brown wine?

    Thanks everyone. Going to get you guys a photo now. BTW, I wasn't considering tossing it...it has alcohol in it afterall, and me and my yeasty friends created it, so the only final destination for it is in my belly no matter how brown it is :) I read about removing the co2 in the...

    3 year old wine kit = brown wine?

    I will post a picture tonight when I get off work. It does taste good, like wine should taste, maybe not so sweet as a normal white zin but I still have the "f-pack" and a bunch of other stuff to add to it. I found it weird that it tasted carbonated, I assume because it's still fermenting and...

    3 year old wine kit = brown wine?

    Hello everyone! I am an avid beer brewer, but was recently given a free WineExpert White Zinfandel wine kit, 6 gallon carboy and a white plastic fermenter along with some other goodies that come with your standard wine kits. Here's the catch...the wine kit (not the fermenting equipment but...
