Hey all,
I've done 5-10 kits in the past year and a half and a few fruit wines. The kits are OK wines but I keep hearing that if you get real juice you can make better wines, although it sounds like more risk of goofing it up.
If I try a bucket of juice, what more equipment do I need beyond the standard primary, secondary, hydrometer and other chemicals?
Is it better to get multiple buckets of juice and do larger quantity?
PH tester, TA test,
Its not that I'm not happy with my wines but I want to branch out and try a bucket of real juice and experiment.
I live in MN and can get buckets at midwest supplies easily.
