    Grapes by mail

    I too had a bad experience and will never buy form them again. Their prices are good but no support or back up etc. I never even got a call back

    Other Tweeking Cheap Kits

    Thank you. I figure what i'm going to do is separate the 5 gallons in to two batches. One will be 3 gallons the other two. I will lightly zest the 2 gallons and see how it tastes. I'm excited to try the next adventure

    REVIEW: *allinonewinepump*

    basically it is a vacuum bag that the fruit goes into and the other end or vacuum end goes into a 1 gallon jug. Pressed the fruit i put in very nicely ad was easy to use. I'm ot sure he still sells them, but along with his vacuum pump his stuff cannot be beat.

I didn't care. I do small batches of country wines. I recently started some dragons blood wine and had about...

    How Much Wine Do You Drink?

    Sort of depends on the day the meal and the time. Easier to say two to three bottles a week. I love making it and I love to drink it.

    Remove odors from plastic fermentors

    Boy talk about timing. I made a batch of Beer and used one of my plastic carboys. UGH, what a smell is going on in there. I decided to dedicate the carboy to all future beer making. Now i will try the Oxy clean in the sun bit and hope it does the trick.

    Cyser taste is bad.

    Patience, Mead takes along time. 2-4 weeks in the primary, then rack when fermentation slows to about once every 30 seconds. I like pectic enzymes in mine to help clear. If it does not do that then I add bentonite to it. Once in the bottle i wait 6 months before trying. After that i'm not a...
