I'm a newbie that's been reading the posts for some days now, but decided to jump in with my own questions.
For starters, am I correct that the wine conditioner is added after you've stabilized your wine (killed the yeast) to add some sweetness? Do you use the grape concentrates in the same way, or are they supposed to be added at the beginning of the winemaking process?
Also, I have some wine that can be bottled soon. Some of my friends like their wines sweet, others dry. Is it possible to stabilize, then bottle part of the batch, sweeten the rest and then bottle it immediately? I'm unclear after reading the posts as to whether it's important to wait a few days or not if you add sugar back into the wine.
Thanks,
Anne
