Introduce Yourselves here

[Smokey Robinson]

After seven days the wine number one has slowed right down but I'm worried about the foam on the top it's really thick and is looking increasingly horrible. The SG has remained at 1.000 for two days and I'm thinking of racking into another DJ to get rid of this foam. It looks like rotting fruit. Any ideas please guys

I'll echo what John says above: Don't worry about it and let it do its thing.

As long as it isn't smelling like rotten eggs, it's fine. Always remember, fermentation is nothing more than controlled spoilage. And yes, it can look quite unappealing at times.

I will echo that too. May the froth be with you !!

New to wine making - new to the forum

Hi all,
my name is Pat, I have made the resolution to start making wine (on a small scale), I do not want to make it a business, it should rather be a passion to be enjoyed. I thought it's best to register in a forum first to get started and solve soome questions. So that's why I am here in the first place. I'll probably ask questions which the professionals amongst you find really boring, but I hope that's fine.
See you later, Pat

Hi I'm Al from Southampton. I joined the forum in 2009 and have lurked on and off since then and so I thought I should really introduce myself.

I used to make Boots wine and beer kits in the 70s then had a 30 year lay off due to work and family. Now back into it and started on Wine No 1 and a Beaverdale Barolla kit

Hello to everyone at Wine at Home, my name is Gary and I live Just outside Durham City in the NorthEast of England.

I have no experience at making wine or beer.

I've had a good look around over the past few days and this site is absolutely full of expert information and advice. I can't wait to get started, first thing on the agenda is to get the supplies in for a Number 1 Wine in the wine series.
