Great take a reading. If it's 0.994 (your previous reading), continue as you've planned. If it's not 0.994. wait a day or so and take another reading.
To test your wine ABV after the wine is finished you can use a vinometer. They are somewhat accurate and very inexpensive.
OK, the kit I bought was from Kraus. It was the California Connoisseur. The instructions were KenRidge, but I am not sure that is who made the juice. The target weight was supposed to be .995 according to the instructions. There has been no discernible activity with the batch. I tasted my sample and it tasted much better than the last time. Dry though.

I would very much like to sit down with you once we return in April. In the meantime, if you have never been into Adventures in Homebrewing on Jackson Road, stop in and talk to Matt and the rest of the crew there.
I purchased a warming belt for the carboys. My house is rarely ever going to be above 70 degrees even in the summer so I need something that will raise the temp to 75 degrees.
I was going to bottle this weekend however I was reading the instructions on the filter kit and they said that the filter will not turn cloudy wine into clear. My wine tastes great, but it is still cloudy. Should I add more clarifier? (Kieselsol & chitosan?)
