That's EXACTLY what I was thinking, Mud, it seems like every elderberry thread I have found has been vague to me, maybe I'm just crazy:re

So I have a friend that is willing to give me elderberries. I can get them already cooked down into quart size or as fresh berries. Here's the problem, I have NO IDEA what to do with them. The only wine I have made has been from kits. So I have "most" of the basic wine making supplies & have...

So would you say that the kits are drinkable younger than the juice buckets?

Thanks! I see what youare saying Bart. Yes, the Juice bucket is balanced. But How do I select the yeast? How long do I wait? Is there a timetable for this sort of thing?

Any idea if this can be shipped? Not sure if that would be a good idea or not.

So I have the a local Winery taking orders for the Buckets of grape juice in all different varitals. I would like to order a couple of them. The owners said all I have to do is add yeast. But I am wondering if anyone has any recipes for these buckets and timetables, like how long I should let it...

Tanks! I'm thinking about Lambrusco ans Zinfindel Royale Noy set in stone yet. I'm not a big Zin Fan, but aloy of my friends are so I figured it would be nice to have. Love Lambrusco though. I am open to suggestions! I will ask over in General as well.

Thanks for the input. I racked it the other day b/c my winery guy said you can't "over-rack" at this stage, it'll just help the clearing process...hopefully that is correct. I am guessing that it will turn out just fine. I was just tasting some Island Mist the other day, and I love all the...

No f-pac. Not sure about the sorbate:d

I am on stop 3 of my Reisling kit and I tasted it and itdoesn't really do much for me. Is there a way at this stage to add a fruit extract or anything to give it some more flavor? Thanks:h

I like being married:n We are heading to 10 years.:b

I have all the equipment, just not the addatives, since they came in my kit;)

Very new...but intregued. Possible Obssesed. Thank goodness for my 3 little kiddos who keep me to busy to obsess to much:)I am still pretty confused by the whole process, but I am thinking I am going to make something from juice concentrate.

Sp experienced wine makers, In your opinnion is it better to use a kit or start with the fruit and go through that process? Cost? I have done one kit, it was fairly easy. The directions made it sound MUCH more complicated than it really turned out to be. I've got to get something else going in...

What type of container do you use for a 2.5- 3 gallon batch? Thats for the tips!

Is it suitable to use plastic milk jug containers?

:)Thank you Wade E! I am glad to hear that. I was really very confused as to how it would go bad, but like I said, it's my first one.

The kit I am making says that it is best to use within 6 months. If you want it for longer to add more sulphites, which I am trying to avoid doing. Thanks for the tips.

THANK YOU! How long is this good for? Does it get better with age or just spoil?
