    Other FWK Must Process

    Hi all. The concentrate is made with a flash evaporation process. Essentially, removes the water. Technically it is a form pasteurization but different from conventional and it’s a lot less destructive. We need to keep them cold because they remain perishable as they are not cooked to be shelf...

    Finer Wine Kit Finer Wine Kits

    The name is referential to the blend because that is where it originated but not the juice itself. In the future I expect we will be able to expand enough to start offering regional specific varietals but that will take time. For now we are coming up with our own versions of regional blends. A...

    Hey Jim! The starter pack has 1/8 tsp of k meta. It’s a very low dose and should not cause any issues with coinoculation. The only thing I will say is that MLF will soften the wine. It may result in a flabby finished product. I’ve done MLF and I don’t prefer the outcome but that’s also my taste...

    Ancient Roman winemaking

    Awesome post! I’m fascinated with this myself. Though winemaking was spread throughout the Mediterranean by the Greeks and Phoenicians, the Romans industrialized it! They did the same with Olive Oil. Very soon, I will be living abroad in Italy for a while and plan to do a bunch of research. I’m...

    Hello all! FYI, we are updating the process with the carbon again with a few more enhancements. Mixing bentonite with the carbon before adding concentrate pulls a lot more of it out more quickly. We are also going to instruct customers to add fining agents separately as per the manufacturers...
