Just curious how much that is in quarts or more straight forward, how many bottles?

I had that issue with the Chocolate Raspberry. The Salted Caramel actually ran straight and true right down the line and cleared nicely. I'm gonna rack and infuse tomorrow and put it into bulk for 6 months. Tastes great but not as much salted caramel as I would have liked.

I'm in primary right now with this kit. I'm planning on using E&J to boost. Everclear sounds strong, how does it work? Are you aging it?

Presently making the WE Eclipse Washington Riesling.

Probably boring but hands down, it would be Riesling.

How much brandy are you guys adding? I just started this kit yesterday and its in full fermentation as we speak. I plan on using XO brandy but will take suggestions if there is something better.

Well, the wine turned out great. Its very nice. The flavor is awesome. Good luck with your kit.

Finished SG was 1.000, everything is bottled and ageing now. It turned out nice.

Exactly. :h

Racked to new carboy Wednesday, SG was 1.000, tastes nice. Now on to bottling in 14 days if its clear enough.

All set with degassing and all the other crap. Tastes good even though its not done yet. .990 before degas.

I will definitely let you know. Ill keep posting the status of it here. On Tuesday Ill be degassing and clarifying. So far it is looking great.

Racked to secondary today. SG was .990 at racking.

As the title says, I started a Traminer Riesling today. This is my third kit and I have to say like many said, it gets easier and easier with every one you make. Does anyone have any experience with this kit? How does the sweetness end up on it.

Also, make sure you degassed it enough. My first wine, I had that problem. My temp was cool in the house and I was told I had some cold fermenting going on. Had to degas it more and added another clarifier and with time it dropped out mostly. I have since, bought a couple heat belts which I used...

What an awesome bottling last night. So very clear and absolutely no loss. I got 30 bottles and 1 glass out of it. Im so happy with this one that I went and got another Pacific Quartet kit Friday. They had one left. :tz:db

Im bottling it tonight. Nothing has fallen out of it in the last 2 weeks and its crystal clear, and tastes wonderful.

Why so long? Do you put in a solid bung to keep oxygen out?

I added the entire F pack and it is perfect.

QA23 worked well. This stuff tastes wonderful already. Im in the last 14 days of fining now. Lori, would you suggest keeping it at 70 degrees for the last step or dropping the temp for the last week?
