Would love to be able to take one of these kits as the sound the business....unfortunately I only have one gallon DJ's as yet, still learning and don't have room for the big one's. Hopefully I will be able to take some of these next year.

You won't be disappointed. The process is a little more involved than most kits, but the resulting wine is superb.

As promised my Limited Edition Gewurztraminer arrived today.

Thank you Karl for the personal service and the updates of the order progress at every stage.

I have never met you but it felt like I was doing business with an old friend


Looking at the instructions it says to use a 30 litre primary....is that really necessary cause I ain’t got one, surely a white is not going to be that lively.....is it?


BTW Karl I shall be looking for a good red next time.
Now I don’t like Bordeaux but I don’t mind Burgundy and I like Chianti and Rioja.

Any recommendations dude

[Duffbeer]

Cheers Wurz, I like to keep folks informed, nothing worse than expecting a delivery and it not turning up, or it turning up when your out
My Dolcetto went in a 25ltr fermenter and was fine, suppose they're being cautious in case of a foamer.

WE Original Series which are simular in quality to the Limited Edition do a Chianti £65.95 or slightly upmarket Selection International Rioja £67.95 or a slightly cheaper Vintners Reserve Bourgeron Rouge £46.50 and of course I always stock the beaverdale Rioja.

Enjoy the Gewurztraminer

Chocolate raspberry port. I started the ferment today it says in the instructions initial sg should be between 1128 and 1134 my hydrometer only goes up to 1120 and i think by looking at it the sg is about 1124 is this ok or should i make adjustments

[goldseal]

Have you given it a REALLY good stir? Mine was around the 1130 mark I think.

[Darren]

I have given it a good stir but will give it another really good stir and then get back goldseal no problem thanks

[Darren]

Thanks for that goldseal my hydrometer only goes to 1120 but i can see that its at least 1130 if not 1132 after a good old stir i was getting a little worried cheers I can't mess this one up its for the oh 40th next year
