We could really use some help picking grapes this weekend. We'll have food and beverages for anyone who wants to come help. Even 2 hours would be appreciated. We're about 40 miles north of Minneapolis. If interested, please send me a private message here and I can fill you in on the details...

I just purchased a vinmetrica SC-300. We have a vineyard and need to test the acidity of our grapes before selling them. The only youtube videos I find demonstrate how to test the acidity of wine...not grapes. We picked some grapes and crushed them in a baggie and then I took a 5ml pipette...

Just wanted to give you a heads up. I tried to place an order from vinmetrica.com last Friday for an SC-300 Pro Kit to the tune of $515 because I needed it here before this weekend. Their web site jacked up the order and it looked like it had been ordered twice. No, it wasn't me....I could...

I made plum wine a couple of months ago. Its been aging in a carboy. The recipe called for adding acid blend and stupid me followed the recipe and didn't check the acid level before adding the acid blend. This was my first attempt at making wine and I've learned a lot since then...

We've fermented our wine from our grapes and then moved the wine from the primary fermenter to carboys. It was still fermenting in the carboys but looks like its about done since its not bubbling much through the airlocks. I think we should rack to new carboys, right? Should we be adding...

Hi Everyone, I'm making my first batch of wine using plums that I grew. Yesterday I mixed up the recipe for a dry plum wine and added everything (per the recipe) except the yeast. I added the proper amount of campden tablets too. I waited 24 hours. Tonight before adding the yeast tested...
