    Crystals in bottled wine

    I have some Cabernet that has been bottled for over a year. I have been drinking this batch for the past 4-6 months, but noticed on the last two bottles that there was something in the bottom of the bottle which I thought looks like oak chips but was not. It turned out to be sugar crystals...

    Bottling bucket vs (siphon) wand

    I went to the link to buy the Ferrari filler, but as I read the reviews, a lot of people have issues with it leaking or spitting wine. Have you figured out why this happens, or have you experienced the leaking?

    Stubborn label glue removal mistake?

    My routine is to put the rinsed bottle in the oven at 350 for five minutes, then use a knife to lift the edge of the label and peel off. Then I put the cooled bottle into very hot water with oxyi clean and soak for 5-10 minutes. Most of the glue will come off. For the stubborn glue, after I have...

    WineXpert Old yeast

    I bought a Trinity Red Wine Expert's kit off of Amazon. I will never do that again, it looks like it's very old. The wine experts label was covered with another label so I could not see the manufacturer date. I decided to go ahead and make it anyway. I noticed as I was sprinkling on the yeast...
