I have had very good results from MM All Juice. I've done a Pinot Grigio and a Pinot Noir which every one that has tried has loved them. Time makes a big difference as in all wines. And the venturi pour device is invaluable. I've waited long enough and don't want to wait after popping a cork. So...

I started both the WE Select Estate Washington Columbia Valley Riesling and the MM All Juice Johannisburg Riesling back in march of this year. I did this because I have been pleased with any WE Select Estate kit that I have done and was interested in the newly available MM All juice available...

I have 2 reisling batches that was started in 03/07 that have been bulk aging. (MM All juice and Select Estate) Due to sickness and surgery I have not been permitted by SWMBO to lift the carboys, so I have not even thought of bottling until now. The question is I have family coming in for...

Where in KY are you from. I am in the western part.

Very nice label. Welcome to a great hobby and be prepared to be "bitten by the bug". Hope you have patience especially with your first wine. Welcome aboard the forum and ask away. That's how many of us have learned to do the right thing from the start.

Now why is that cheating??? I dont have a recycling plant here. Nor do I have any family in town so I would have to resort to buying commercial wine to get bottles. In my opinion it was a whole lot cheaper just to buy the bottles. I noticed on George's toy shop mention of special pallette...

I've noticed it in my white wines, which is whatI usually make. I cant say about cilantro because SWMBO buys all kinds of "herby" soaps so all the herbs that I love smell like soap. Brocolli on the other hand have never liked the smell but enjoy eating it. the pot that it was cooked in...

My hats off also!!! I hate delabelling commercial bottles so much I broke down and bought a pallete of a total of 40 cases of bottles from George just recently. Should be set for life with all that. Ended up being a lot more cost effective than going to the local store (150 miles one way) and...

Degassing is a whole 'nother topic, butI certainly don't think what we have been talking about here is related to that. I certainly don't smell/taste my sodas when experiencing this "flavor". The one wine that I did that I didn't do a good job of degassing has a completely different taste and...

I too have noticed this smell, which to me is a very yeasty vegatal type of smell/taste. It does not have a sulphur type of component and I have noticed it even before adding the K meta or sorbate into my wines. I cannot say if it is with the Mosti All juice products because when I have done...

Soak in very hot water and add a small amount of tide and let sit for 24 hours. I'm too lazy to scrape right away, plus by then many labels are floating then. The ones that aren't come off with scraping around the bottle, not up and down. Any residual glue then comes off at the same time with...

Thanks a little bold I can handle but the likes of cab sav andshiraz are way too much for me. BTW How is my old stomping ground. Born and raised in New Westminister and Burnaby.Edited by: docbee

How is the flavor and boldness of the sangiovese. I haven't evolve much into the reds because I am not real wild of the real strong flavors and mouthfeel. I do like the pinot noir and I tried and likeda chianti last week. Was reading the description of the sang and am thinking about it, but...

Just a simple water bath or what is used for beer brewing is drape a tee shirt over the primary bucket and in a water bath and occassionally wet the shirt down. This should bring the temp down a few degrees without having to risk too much temp drop with ice or fluctuating temps when the ice melts.

These are the same size as my beer primary buckets and will work perfectly. I haven't tryed putting the lids back on securely so I dont know how secure they will be, but for the primary that is no big deal anyway. I am using one of the MM all juice buckets as a sanitizer chamber for most...

I have done 3 Mosti Mondaile All juice kits and have been very pleased with them. Once I had a "could of had a V8" moment and learned from PeterZ to siphon the juice out rather than the risky pouring the kits have worked wonderful. The instructions are a little convoluted (one size fits all) but...

Luckily I have one of those big "mud sinks" in the laundry area. If I didn't then I think that I would use a faucet adapter in the kitchen sink with a short hose for my cleaning. Usually I use the adapter with a bottle washer for a pressure spray cleaning with very hot water. My carboys are then...

My stab at it is : Mow stee Mon dieelle with a slight roll of the l and silent ending e and the die elle more closer to the word dial then 2 syllables

Welcome Mr. Robusto to a forum that is friendly and very supportive. You can get all your questions answered and learn alot from here. As mentioned earlier give George a call at The Toy Store and he can direct you in what equipment you will need as you move forward without having alot of non...
