MidTexan,

MjdTexan,


How much you making? And what is your recipe?

the quote below is how much I am making. The recipe's came off of Jack Kellers website. The welches cherry-apple-grape from concentrate is the same recipe as the apple concentrate for Jack Kellers website only with the cherry-apple-grape concentrate instead of the apple concentrate.

I didn't realize that was all you were using. so you are making a Strawberry, Peach, Cherry, Apple, Banana, grape, mangowine.. Some interesting mix. Let us know how it comes out. Howmany #'s banana's you gonna use?

 

[Wade E]

Fruit wines are the bomb and still my fav. but I refuse to make small batches as even if they dont come out great there is always a way to make them great.

 

[Tom]

Wade I agree. It is easier to "fix" 6 gallons of wine than a 1 gallon. It looks like he has 7 gallons in his recipe. LOL, providing it's all used.

 

[Wade E]

Im not sure but I think those are all separate batches.

I am SO sorry, no, I am making all of those as seperate batches of wine. You really have me laughing right now. Thats my fault. How funny.


Each line is a seperate batch

 

[Tom]

LOL

like wade said.. "think there are different batches".

 

[joeswine]

I conjure larger batches are easier to correct when you have a real direction to go to ,,but we all experiment,,,with odds and ends..........but 1 gallon batches are not the way to go........

 

[mjdtexan]

I know, I know, but its fun. I do have a 3 gallon batch going. I will fill the 6 gallon and 5 gallon carboy pretty fast I expect.

 

[Tom]

One thing for beginers. You need to get more carboys faster that you realize. Once you get "The Bug" watch out....

 

[joeswine]

yes we know the feeling of not enough all to well and more is always in front of us wino's,makers that is////////

Amen to that...............

Weird thing about the fresh strawberry recipe, that 1 gallon batch has a LOT of sediment in it. I will take a picture of it tomorrow to show yall. I mean it looks like an abnormal amount of sediment. Of course with my limited experiance I could be wrong but the other recipes that I started on the same day are not throwing that much sediment.

mjdtexan, I have made a gallon of strawberry wine also. And there is ALOT of sediment at the bottom.
This past weekend I racked to a primary bucket thru a strainer bag and got alot of it out. But there is still alot at the bottom.
