    I to am a winemaker. Most people do not know what all it takes to make a good fruit wine. This is exactly how i make my wine. This is the best video I have ever seen on this subject. Well done! Wish I had seen this 5 years ago when I stated, it would have saved me a lot of heartache!!! Thanks again.

    I sanitize also, but I rinse it or get it all out of my jug first. my racking carboys are never foaming like that. I wonder how much of the starsan taste you're getting in your wine. You only need like a cup of sanitizer solution - diluted - in a Carboy. rinse it around let it air-dry

    Great videos. I don't think you overdid the sanitizing at all. If other viewers think it's preferable to risk contamination, that's their problem. I'll be trying this, this week!

    • @williejohnson5172
      @williejohnson5172 4 роки тому +1

      Contamination of what? I'm honestly not getting it. My grandmother would make plum wine. She'd throw a bunch of plums in a five gallon crock mash them up throw in about 20 pounds of sugar, some bread yeast, put a towel over the top and let it sit, for days/weeks occasionally stirring it and adding more sugar. Isn't the alcohol killing any unwanted bacteria?

    • @flashguard1949
      @flashguard1949 4 роки тому

      @@williejohnson5172 correct! The bacteria can change the flavor of the mead or wine. However, sanitizing will kill the yeast. Starzan is a HEAVY sanitizer. So it is good to clean then rinse and dry. THEN use filtered water to make it. Afterward, you can add flavors once it has fermented. This is because the yeast may not ferment using the new flavors due to sugars varying between fruits. Also some fruits spoil and go bad so you need to figure out how you want to add the flavors. Usually, after fermentation is good. You can make sourdough with yeast in your area with just flour and water! So local yeast may affect the flavor. But ya you sanitize to get consistent flavors :D don't kill your yeast :D

    Hi Justin. I am ready to run for the hills. Some say add 5 more campden tablets for each transfer. Some say only 2 times total- the first time and then at bottling. Is there a true way or is it all subjective? Thanks!!

    • @kirkboswell2575
      @kirkboswell2575 6 років тому

      Wine and beer making kits available from several suppliers. Go from basic supplies all the way up to full set-up kits. Just do a Google search and pick the one that meets your needs. Might possibly need to look at the fine print and find one that ships internationally.
      Alternatively, you can look at what the kits provide, and get similar equipment from the local hardware stores. The reusable 5 gallon water jugs work pretty good. Then all you need to get is a supply of yeast. Bread yeast will work, but the special strains supplied by kit makers are actually better.
      How much work you put into it depends on what you want your results to be. If you want something drinkable, it doesn't take that much work. If you want to make a fine wine that an aficionado would appreciate, a little more effort is needed.

    I use three tablespoons of bleach in my 5 gallon carboy, fill with water and wait 20 minutes. I then rinse it by using one gallon of water which I shake vigorously in the carboy and then dump and repeat 5 times.
    I cook the watermelon while mashing the flesh until it reaches 180 degrees. No sulfur is needed via Camden tablets if you cook it. Sulfites is what gives folks headaches from drinking wine.
    I use no Food Safe high density plastic buckets for fermentation. It ferments right in the glass carboy.

      Why don’t you tell us how it turned out instead of redoing the whole process and than we still don’t know your critique. You have to be transparent if you want to be trusted build a following and get advertisements revenue on top of doing what you enjoy
