    WineXpert Twisted Mist new flavors

    winexpert let me know through a DM on facebook that they would be releasing 6 new flavors of twisted mist kits this spring. 2 in March, 2 in April and 2 in May. They were going to post in February about the March flavors but I haven't seen anything. Has anyone else heard anything?

    WineXpert Island mist flavoring question

    My most popular wine among friends is the island mist peach apricot chard. A good friend wants me to make a batch for her wedding but wants me to “bump up the peach flavor”. How can I do this at the end along with the flavor packet? I live in west Texas so there are no wine making stores...

    Fontana tropical fruit.

    I know most aren’t fond of the Fontana kits but I’ve made several and my non wine drinking friends love the results from the fruit wine kits . Walmart carries a decent selection of the Fontana fruit but they are only listed on the site by the fruit flavor not the type of wine. Anyone have any...

    Fontana kit

    call me crazy but I love the Fontana kits. Last time I purchased one from amazon but the selection is poor. I live in Texas. Are there any online companies that sell and ship in the US. I did a google search but it didn’t turn up much. Thank you!!

    Trouble with kit

    I’ve made many wine kits with no issues. I’m currently making the island mist green apple kit. Starting SG was 1.050. After 21 days it’s stuck at 1.000. 3 days ago I tried restarting it with E 1118 yeast. Still nothing. Room temp has been around 74-77. I’m at a loss on what to do. Is the kit...

    WineXpert Island Mist Peach Apricot Chardonay

    This will be my fifth kit. I am learning a lot from this site. However I find it difficult to search for specific answers without investing hours of reading. Not a complaint just an observation! So I am sorry if this question has been answered before. I am looking to increase the alcohol for...

    Newbie question

    So I have two kits in secondary stage now. The first is an Island Mist hard limeade and the second is a Fontana Shiraz. By the time frame and SG readings I'm figuring they will both be ready for the finishing steps this coming weekend. However I'm going to be gone. Is there any harm in leaving...

    Clear beer bottles?

    I currently have a batch of wine expert hard limeade going. I'm treating it like a "mikes hard limeade" and will be trying to get some carbonation going at the end. I'd like to bottle it in clear beer bottles with beer caps. I'm having trouble finding such a thing though. Anyone know a good source?

    WineXpert Island Mist Hard Limeade

    Bought this kit from a local store. The owner told me he made this kit and then added 5 oz priming sugar before bottling in 22 oz beer bottles. He said he left out one of the finishing packets. This produced a slightly carbonate beverage. Similar to Mikes hard margaritas. The problem is I can't...
