So yesterday I racked my Sweet Tart (sorry, skeeter pee just doesn't do it for me) to the secondary and got the wild idea to add more blueberry pomegranate juice. It started to bubble profusely, but quickly subsided. The fermentation now looks normal which is good. I'm really hoping that this...

Cherry Skeeter Pee Mango Passion Fruit - Still fermenting so ABV is unknown.

Was super worried that my Skeeter Pee would never clear...but it did! I had used Sparkolloid (positive charge) and it helped a little. A week later I added Bentonite (negative charge) and the next day...WALL-AH! I am completely addicted to this recipe and starting another this week. :h

I haven't quite decided what the final product will be with my pear wine label but this is a start. :h[/IMG]

This probably could be a question related to wine making in general, but I'm pretty much referring to my Skeeter Pee. So yesterday I added some Sparkolloid to my S.P. and by the end of the night I saw a lot of sediment at the bottom of the carboy, so it looked like it had completely settled out...

So I think that some have done this in the past but I'd like to know if you have used Torani flavored syrups in your f-packs, or at all, and if they worked out okay? Also, do you think that it would be a bad addition? I was thinking about adding some caramel flavoring to my pear.

Thinking I found the perfect thing (if going super, super cheap)for when I'm in a rush to degas my wine! I've started using an Immersion Hand Blender, and cannot believe the amount of foam it creates! What I do is rack my wine to an empty fermenter bucket and as it's filling up I start at the...

So I really want to make a strawberry skeeter pee but not sure how to do this exactly. There really aren't a lot of options as far as strawberry concentrate so I came up with this recipe and was planning to add it when I back sweeten it. Strawberry Syrup 1 pint of fresh or frozen...

I'm so glad I found this forum and it's huge amount of guru's available for mind picking. I'm very new to everything wine, minus the years of consuming others goods. I just started my very first batches... Pear and Pumpkin! Can't wait to consume my labors.

I have not yet made Skeeter Pee or anything from the slurry of a previous batch so I have a question... Can you freeze yeast slurry without any complications?

I'm looking to start a batch of pear wine this weekend but would like a really good recipe for 5 gallons. Does anyone have a recipe they'd like to share with me?

So I've heard not to use distilled water (ooops on the last batch) because there are so many necessary components in water that help create a good wine. What I want to know now is...can you use regular tap water or is the chlorine just too much? If I can't use tap water, is the only alternative...

So I'm not even sure if it's a real substitution or not (raisins for tannin), but I was curious about how much tannin you would use if your recipe does not call for it, yet calls for raisins? ~Sarah~

First I am very new to the wine making hobby so I want to thank all that respond. :D I am now in the process of making Pumpkin wine and have seen several recipes. I decided to combine 3 of them and came up with this... Pumpkin Pie Wine Ingredients: 3 gallons distilled water (Correction...do...
