i like my wines. Are they better than store bought? Some have nothing to compare with. If you didn't like them why make them. Some are not as hoped but the other regulars I like. Even if you don't like them keep trying. Others may like them or you may enjoy making them, does it really matter?

What is the production of the commercial wineries on this site? The local establishment near me produces 60,000 plus bottles and sells grapes and juice. I don't know is this big small ???? All muscadine they grow on 250 acres.

Hot water should soften the hose and make it slip right on.

We have a 1 1/2 year old poodle mix that ways 8 pounds. He wants whatever you have including beer and wine. The vet says a little won't hurt and might calm him down. He only gets a half a shot or so but it is enough he will let me enjoy mine.

my wife would order it 8 or 9 then microwave it and complain it is tough. If charred was an option she would go for it.

There is an app called scannable I believe it is by evernote. It has a picture of a multi shade blue butterfly and it basically turns your phone into a scanner. it finds cuts crops and takes pictures. I know they have for iphone not sure on android. It comes in handy for lots of things when you...

I have a Hornady GS-1500. comes with calibration weight and pan. it will weigh to one tenth grain (15.43 grains in a gram) and will do grain, gram, ounce and carat. it says graduation is .005g. It does have tare. I use it on the grain scale all the time and the accuracy seems to stay within a...

Started a Vintners best and so far the flavor is good. One thing to remember looking at labels is the list order by volumes max to min but they do not list how concentrated the concentrates are. All you can really go by is it is a blend of juices and the final taste.

Used syrup and sugar-don't have my notes handy and it was a little week flavoring wise. Sweetened was much better and even the carbonation improved the flavor. I think as you said- just diluting syrup to the SG you desire would work. I did nothing to the acidity and only added nutrient.

I havent made this yet but I believe theese are sweetened and balanced just add yeast and water. 4 gallon batch might make the ABV too high. Container says diluted gravity 1.077.

The wine was clear with no activity for weeks and no sediment. The sorate could be old but was just purchased. The last attempt I used pure stevia which I thought was non fermentable but? Is there a need to wait between sorbate and sweetening? Isn't conditioner sorbate and sugar?

I made a batch of maple wine and fermented dry (.995). Added kmeta and wine conditioner and in 2 weeks wine was again dry. Added new sorbate and added truvia (stevia) and waited 2 weeks and bottled. A couple months and Wine is carbonated. There is no sediment. I read stevia is non fermentable? i...

Been around a couple years. Make fruit (country wine) and some syrup wines from an old!! book (Herters). Has anyone used the new? Vitners fruity bases in the galolon jugs. I purchased a 1 gallon cherry base for 5 gallon batch is to be ph balanced just add water and yeast. I hope it will be a...

I had some 7.5's and full you don't want to move them. Consider weight when buying. If you have a transfer pump to relocate it might be worth while and probably saves space but multiple 5's are movable and good for smaller batches.

All fiscar are excellent products for the price

Try still pond winery. They have 250 acres make 60000 bottles and sell juice and grapes. They had an event a month ago and seemed to be doing well. Arlington Ga
