Ok, I have done a little research, and by combining some recipes, this is what I have come up with. I plan to start the fruit wine at SG 1.090 (22.5 brix) and ferment down to SG 1.040 (10 brix). At this point, I will stop fermentation with Everclear. Using the Pearson square, I will target 20%...

I would love to join in this month! Now I just need to decide what to make?

Thanks Roy. I am thinking I will give it a try. Pomegranate-Beaujolais here we come!

Thanks Julie. I was thinking that was the answer. I was hoping to combine home winery.com concentrates, 1 fruit and 1 red wine, and ferment dry, then back sweeten. I have heard that 1 pack of the red concentrate comes out thin in a 5 gallon batch. So I thought if I added a fruit, it would give...

Hi all, I am a longtime member, but I don't post much. Thanks to all of you guys, I can search and find most of my answers. :h I want to make a fruit wine blend. Something like blueberry-merlot, raspberry-cab, pomagranate-merlot, etc.. I am not sure of the combination yet. My question is...

My GAR is in the primary bubbling away. I bumped the sg to 1.70. Was afraid to make rocket fuel. :) Will update in 5 ti 7 days.

I went with the Island Mist Green Apple Reisling. Bumped the sg up 10 1.065 Thought it would add a little punch but not make rocket fuel. I will post a review when it is done.

I thought about making my own, but I know that she wants to be drinknig it ASAP. So I figured a kit would be faster and have less chance of me screwing it up.

Thanks for the help guys.

Hi all, I want to make a summer "mist type wine". My wife has told me that I want to make one of the apple flavored wines :D Should I make the Island Mist Apple or the Orchard Breezin Apple. My local shop sells both. Which tastes better? Thanks.

I second the suggestion for Bergamais. We started drinking it at 3 1/2 months and really enjoyed it.

I think they look great!

Thanks joe. I will be sure to double check the acid.

Great. Thanks for letting me know. Maybe I should pick up an extra bucket! I feel honored that his first post was to help me :try

Thanks for the info. I will write down the q's and ask. i have never been there, so I wasn't sure how helpful they would be. Have any of you used PI juice in the past? How did it turn out?

Hello all, I am looking for a little help.... I am getting my first bucket of fresh juice! I am getting 5 galllons of DeChaunac from Presque Isle. I am in Erie next weekend for a wedding and will be picking it up. I have a couple of questions. I have read other post, but I just want to make...

I placed my pre-order at the homebrew shop yesterday. I am very excited to try this one!

Thanks for the help. I will get started a batch next week :h

Ok, I currently have my first batch of wine in the bucket fermenting. So I have no real experience, but I want to make a port from berries. Is it possible to make a berry wine and then just stop the fermentation with alcohol at the appropriate time? Is it really that simple? Any help...
