Whatever happened to Danger Dave? We miss him!!!!

Type of Yeast? What is the best yeast to use with Vinters Harvest Black Currant conc.?

The vines need to be trimmed back in the dead of winter, during dormancy, for optimal bearing of fruit. However, my understanding is the expected bearing life of these vines is 20-25 years.

Did you up the ALCOHOL content by adding sugar and concentrate? If not, has anyone done this one this way? Henry

It's fine, just rack out of bucket @ 1.00-1.002 SP into 3 Gal carboy.

WineforFun::: Thanks for the recipe, I'll have to give it a try!!! GaBoy

Would you mind sharing the recipe for your "quick drinker"? Henry

Follow Ison's planting/growing/fertilization instructions that came with your plants and you will be fine! You can put your grow tubes on now, in your part of the country. You only want ONE main shoot going to your trellis wire!!

GREAT to see you back, hope your feet have healed well!!!

How much did you backsweeten?

Thanks, Julie! Do you use tannins also with fermentation, or ONLY after? Henry

Julie, I notice you have done many muscadine alone and combos. Are there any problems that you run into with these, that I should be particularly aware of in making? Thanks for any tips about these. Henry

Whatever happened to Danger Dave? Did he get over his foot injury? Is he still making wine?? We all miss him on this thread!!!!

I have 6 vines planted here in Western N.C., and 2 of them are Nobles, doing well for 1st 2 years. Henry

Gary, Have you bottled and/or tried this taste yet?? Very interested to know!! Henry

Steve, Where did you get your plastic DIVIDED milk carton you use for bottling. The handles make it SO MUCH easier to move and carry than fighting the slippery cardboard ones!! Henry

You are right to divide by 3 for your usage, and the citrosan is added at least 1 hour after slowly dissolved in 1 oz of warm water.

THANKS!!! I have 3 of those vines that are 2 yrs old, hope to pick in 2 yrs!!!

Signed up for # 1 !!!

Where did you purchase your muscadine juice, if I may ask?
