Cheers! Hope you enjoy! I have a few dozen more recipes to post :o

Correct. Brandy will ruin the flavor of the chocolate, I tried two attempts at this personally and did not like the outcome at all. The flavor of the brandy was so strong it masked the take of chocolate, the second attempt I added more chocolate and it was the same outcome despite doubling the...

Good to note, I've used various other chocolate based powders and found a few batches had left a 'gritty' taste/lining. So I stuck with the bakers chocolate.

I have just that! A member, cfmiller posted a question asking if anyone had a Raspberry Port wine recipe, and earlier this season I decided to make up a recipe for one. Searching the forums, it seems one is needed here! Just so everyone is aware, to make a proper Port wine you have to add a...

4 years later. I'd give this one an 8. I made the recipe up as I went (and I've made hundreds of different wine batches since with various fruits... I should post my recipes), and it turned out to be a wonderful wine, especially with age. The more apples you ferment, the better. You can even...

Woot! Good luck and Enjoy! I still have bottles of my original batch, it's very tasty.

My wine is still bulk aging in the carboy since the start of this post, October last year. I haven't lost any color, mine is a nice clear reddish tint (color blind, don't ask me). The color could depend on the type of crab apples, as there is 37 different crab apple species.

I have two versions going, the first racked at day 7 on the 17th which was with the powdered peanut butter 6:1 ratio (1 gallon). The second is made with real peanut butter, .6KG to 1 Gallon of water or 0.07 gallons of peanut butter - boiled, skimmed and cooled and was racked yesterday (23rd)...

I personally use the 1 gallon Milk Jugs from the store. I find my the airlock bungs fit perfectly inside them... plus we go through a lot of milk in this house.

I decided to try another recipe attempt using real peanut butter this time. Using Kraft - Smooth brand peanut butter I had taken a pot and put 2,000 ML (4 cups) of water, brought to a boil. Added in roughly .6kg of the peanut butter, brought back to a boil and skimmed off the top. After I poured...

Hey! Sorry I had forgotten to post any updates on this! I had left it for three days and I had noticed a lot of sediment on the bottom, there was a very thin layer of what looked like some milky? of who knows what on the top. I syphoned the peanut water into another one of my jugs and I gave it...

Day 7 The temperature today was 38 degrees and the SG was 1.030. I strained out the pulp, stems and seeds and transferred it to my carboy. I filled my carboy up, put a cloth on the top and waited for it to calm down and put my airlock on. Now this was a day early but my SG level was ready to go...

Dextrose is a, simple, fermentable sugar. You may want to look at some complex sugars like Lactose or even Splenda for that matter if you're looking at just sweeting without kick starting your fermentation process again unless you can kill the yeast before back sweetening. Filter it a few times...

Here is the label I'm going to use for my Crab Apple Wine batch.

If you're ever in Southern Alberta Canada there is a local bee farm maybe 35 minutes out of my city who sells unpasteurized honey; 20 lbs for 25$ or 35$ with delivery to your door step. It has been a year or so since I bought some from him but I see his ad in the Shopper (free newspaper) all the...

This is a simple apple brandy recipe that I use every year around this time of the season for the Christmas holidays to come. 2 cups of water 3 cups of sugar 3-4lbs of your favorite skinned, sliced and cored apples 1 litre of Brandy - I use St.Remy's 2-4 whole cloves 1-2 cinnamon stick...

I've already started a batch of some Crab Apple Wine and because I have so many crab apples I have a tonne left over for making canned crab apples. I have a simple recipe that I've used time and time again and I'd like to share it! 3lbs of whole Crab Apples 3 cups of Water 2 cups of sugar 2...
