    Can I use raisins as a flavor pack???

    I just started a batch of red wine from concentrated Welch juice and just planning ahead. I was thinking can I add raisin into the carboy if the grape flavor isn't strong enough? Instead of juicing it down? (after fermentation as stoped?) Just thought it might be an option?!

    Went garage sales today...

    Favorite Non wine drink

    Other than wine it would have to be coffee. I used to like hard liquor but not anymore. With wine I get to drink a bottle and feel good the next day with liquor it's not the same story. haha

    F-pack suggestions please

    Starting sg was 1.080 probably a little too high for tea wine. Also it probably needed more tea bags.

    This is an island that the previous owners built and we we're going to make a better one but it works just great for my wine. My husband had to take a shelve off and make the bottom sturdier. Also I keep my buckets in rubermaid containers because I put jars filled with hot water inside to keep...
