moved the rose petal wine to secondary, amazing colour!To most people solutions mean answers. To chemists solutions are things that are mixed up.
A fine wine is a fine wine, 1st time may be by accident, 2nd time is by design - that's why you keep notes.

decided to check a bottle of plum, fantastically sour, and elderberry, really juicy. I know they both need to mature, but you've got to check them haven't you?“Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana!”

racked several demijohns of elderberry and started another couple of tea wines, also racked 40 pints of beer into its new home/barrel with the clearing finning added aswellWine from grapes is alright, but nothing beats the proper stuff to make wine with.

Racked 10 gallons of Seyval
I have never seen a wine throw so much acid during fermentation
the primary fermentation vessel had a coating on the sides all the way down about 2mm thick, and the secondary vessel had around 1 cm of crystals at the base, which incidentally made it really easy to rack as it held the sediment below it.
mind you the acidity was 11g/l when it started
some of this batch is earmarked for sparkling wine production, as Karl and I are making the sparkling aperitif for the Friday night reception at the guild of Judges weekend in Oct 2010 (no pressure then) Im making dry white and Karl is making Med Rose.....what funLast edited by lockwood1956; 13-12-2009, 08:23 PM.N.G.W.B.J.
