I didnt like the idea of cooking the peaches first so I crushed them all and managed to fit them in one nylon bag. Tested the SG at 1.090. 24 hours later added the yeast. Fermentation after 12 hours is producing airlock action and that makes the baby Jesus smile. lol

Thank you Tom. I forgot to mention that. I also forgot to mention it in my notes here at home. I did add it though 12 hours after the Kmeta.

LOL

:d
 
I got the peaches destoned and ready for wine, Yep!

I think the ferment is more active faster than my blackberry. Maybe its because it is warmer this time around in the house than last time.

Oh and I ordered up some one gallon carboys too. Now I can keep the overfill for rackings!
 
Temp IS very important. Now thats it warmer it will ferment faster then if fermented at lower temps.
