    Pumpkin wine questions

    My batch was started on about 1/11/2019 (spare pumpkins from Halloween lol) and bottled 4 days ago. I like to bottle them pretty soon after they clear as I only have a few demijohns. It actually started clearing by itself quite quickly as well. So of course when I tried it, it was at bottling...

    Pumpkin wine questions

    I did not find mine had much of a pumpkin taste (so far anyway). It may reveal itself after a couple months conditioning. Mine also had an eggy smell, however this disappeared after I added campden tablets. I read somewhere that happens but I can't remember why. Wish I'd added more spices to...

    Can tomato wine be made with tomato paste?

    Lol this is clearly an excellent idea, I'm going to have to try it. And ridiculously cheap - added bonus. When you racked it, (there must've been a fair amount of sediment) what did you top up with? I'm always concerned if I use water it will dilute the flavour

    Can tomato wine be made with tomato paste?

    Cracking review there, in your videos I think it's dried basil you add? Can you detect any in the end product? And therefore is it worth adding?

    What's in your glass tonight?

    Leftover pumpkin wine after bottling 11 bottles. Yeah it’s a little young, but it’s got a lot of promise and hey, why waste it? Lol

    Can tomato wine be made with tomato paste?

    Oh you’re on here! Sorry I blagged your video lol, but it seemed entirely relevant. I’d just like to say I watched your brewing videos on YouTube and I think they’re excellent lol. The banana wine recipe is great, I made some a few months ago. Have you ever made hop wine?

    Can tomato wine be made with tomato paste?

    Tomato passata wine recipe He also has another video where he makes it with canned tomatoes. Unfortunately he has not yet posted a results video, however in one of the videos he assures us that he has done it before and it's good lol

    Effects of the wines

    My dad made a wine once which my mum said after one glass instantly gave her a headache. He also made an apple wine a while ago, I distinctly remember watching the X Files and after 2 glasses my fingertips went numb. Fascinating stuff home brew lol

    Pear wine clearing

    Lately when I've been topping up after racking I've started using clear apple juice. I think this adds a bit more than just topping up with sugar and water. Seems to work with quite a lot of wines actually, I topped up cherry with apple and my banana wine with apple. Maybe this would help...

    What R you doing today?

    Ah gotcha. I had no idea it was actually called that. I mean I get the whole specific gravity thing and the hydrometer (although I basically never use it).

    What R you doing today?

    Pitched the yeast in some banana wine this morning. Smells AMAZING. I got high hopes for this one.
