I've been a lurker for a while now and all I can say is this forum rocks! There is so much to learn in this great hobby. I've made several kits- all very good, improving with age. I've stumbled on the wine no1 recipe. Being a scientist and exploring my natural curiosity, I want to experiment with slight variations of the recipe- looking for the holy grail!
My first wine no1 came out brilliant, 6 bottles are gone. They aged over a month and I don't think it gave the wine justice.
I want to start several experiments, high lighting a particular aspect of wine. I figured if I make a 5 gallon batch, I'll have 5 separate gallons to test different variables. This will be a work in progress and the first attempt will be to test body.
Each gallon will produce 6 bottles, and at two month intervals, will taste test each and report my findings here. Over the course of a year, I'll grade aspects of body.
Being a relative newbie, I'm happy for anyone to contribute and hopefully we can get a great tread here.
