yes let it ferment till its dry, if you want to then stabolize and back sweeten it.
if u see it fermenting dont worry about it. it might just ferment slower.
cheers
OK, I know I am rather new and inexperienced at this, BUT how are you going to ferment a 10 gallon batch in a vessel that only holds 6.5 gallons? Larry
I think you were right, it started to ferment again after a couple of days.... I was getting worried. Thanks for your response
try using beer yeast it wont ferment all the way dry.
...wine you MAKE it with less sugars or add more water. The alcohol level is a direct result of the amount of fermentable sugars in your must (the stuff you ferment is called that before you ferment it)....
Not sure there is any such thing. I usually try to get it to ferment as dry as it will go and sweeten it back to taste if needed. Also I like to age in the carboy for about 6 months racking every othe...
Tom at 7 days the primary fermentation usually done, tho in your case if could probably go for a day more. 1.15 - 1.10 is a good time to rack into the secondary. New wine always is going to taste pret...
Most yeast will start dying off at 10%, but some will ferment up to 18% under optimum conditions.
One more thing on this for me and mom maybe letting it ferment halfway and bottling to get it to about 5%. Anyone played with this?
To make a wine with a higher alcohol content allow your must to ferment until you get a hydrometer reading of 1.010 - 0.090 (approximately 7 days. Then stir in a cup of sugar. This will restart the f...
Looks like its going, if you think its stoped search DGreens post on a starter, But if its cool it will ferment slow.
I am using canned 100% grape juice to make the wine. I've let it ferment for about 4 months before bottling. Some of the bottles have champaign like bubbles and some do not.
Any thought?
I bought a 6 gal pale of pinot noir, how long do I let it ferment, is there anything else I should do. First timer.
... once, it turned decent grapes into garbage tasting harsh crapola. Fine if you were going for something to ferment as Oz says but other than that worthless....
another good one is
Redstar's Premier Cuvee Alcohol tolerance to 18%. Will also ferment from 50 to 80 degrees.
i have gotten 16.7% out of pasteur red...

wow thats a long ferment, I have let mine set on the yeast cake for longer than 2 months.
It will ferment out dry at that SG you will end up somewhere around 14%, Look at that f-pack the kit has you add after you stabolize, they are sweetning and adding other little flavors to make the win...
...039;t throw it away because you can use it the next time you make some wine. What you can do is during the fermentation of your next batch add small amounts of the blueberry wine each day. The heat an...
i think it might be ok to use potassium citrate. try making up one gallon and see if it will ferment.
u might want to try to use a regular amount of acid with it.
what type of fruit is the pers...
I havnt brewed using a presure barrel but yes it can take more than 2 weeks. I usually ferment for min 3 weeks before conditioning.
It's zero. If you fermented it the sugar is gone therefore no brix. What the heck do you want to ferment orange juice for anyway? Do you miss that warm prison wine feeling or something?
did you add the right amount of water ? usually kits are not usually that far off .. if the yeast will ferment it it will end up higher in alcohol than planned . if it finishes at the predicted sg
...ime with the 212 yeast. Checked today and it's at 1.034 and hoping to be at 1.01 Saturday for a 5 day ferment....
...campden tablets and then two days later I added my yeast and after two weeks it still didn't start to ferment and my winemaking shop told me that the yeast must be dead and to add more yeast to t...
... thinking about making it. Just found the ginger. I would like to know what it is like dry also. One could ferment it out and bottle it with a shot of priming sugar that way the bottles dont pop their...
I bought a 6 gal pail of pinot noir juice, transfered it to a larger pale and let it ferment for 5 plus months. Too long ,too short, helkp, I'm a first timer.
No give it 2 weeks min 3 weeks is better the first 4 days is the active ferment it is still fermenting and clearing.
...we usually stay away from heat extractions. Blueberry is like grape as you dont need to water it down just ferment the juice....
...inkable .. if you do end up making it it tastes rough but you read a lot of poeple that dont get past the ferment and it is spoiled in the bucket .....
