Great video thanks very much. Your a legend i love the rubber glove bit and when you said no stupid comments it really got me going. Great video for a learner like myself and freat sense of humour.
Hi @theaquaman2373, Thank you very much and Cheers.
I LOVED this video!! The rubber glove part was classic!! Thank you!!!!
Glad you liked it!!
Great video, will definitely have to look at getting one of these kits myself, thanks for the inspiration!
No problem 👍
This was the best! We are racking our first batch tonight and I had some questions. You answered them all! Thank you
Glad it was helpful! Thanks
Super great video dude! I really appreciate you taking the time to make this and showing all the steps! Cheers! Off to make my own batch, beer maybe one day in the future too.
Thank you Cory. I really love making wine I have batch on the go at the moment, two more weeks and I get to taste it. I am sure yours is going to be great. Thank for watching. Pierre
Great video! I’m doing my first wine! I’ve brewed beer for years . This kit has wine skins for me to make a mess. Thanks for the video mate.
Hope you enjoy it!
Thank you for making this video. It is just what I was looking for.
I hope it helped, Thanks for watching.
I actually starting making the same kit today and wish I saw this before but luckily I believe I started right. Interesting and informative video. Cheers!
Awesome. Good luck. I hope it turns out great.
I really like this guy😉 must subscribe now!
Followed step by step and wine came out amazing!!! Thank you! I did go a little longer some days cause I’m lazy and turned out amazing
That's great news, thank you for letting me know. I will soon be making a new kit in the coming month or so. I hope it turns out as good as this one. Cheers
Dude your a star, good presentation. I like your set up!
Oh, thank you. I do try and make videos that people can follow. I really enjoyed making this one. Thanks again,. Pierre
Your video was a great help!! I needed 30 days to get my hydrometer reading to .996 before transferring to carboy. I’m a visual learner so having you demonstrate each step was fantastic. Cheers!
Thanks Lew I'm very happy it helped. Cheers
It takes a lot of good beer to make good wine. Cheers!
Sometimes we all a little change. Cheers
Thanks for the video. This is the video I will refer to on my first batch of red. Will say you were more detailed and fun unlike other main manufacturers videos.
Awesome stuff, I think it's great to help. cheers.
Loved the video! Well done!
Thanks Chis, I really love making wine. Tis video was my second attempt.
thank you for this video, I dont know anything about brewing/winemaking, I just ordered a winexpert kit cant wait to do this
Hope you enjoy it!
This was a great video thanks so much since I’m a beginner it’s a great idea for me to buy one of these kits! Thank you
Thank you @DOC L I hope you have a great time doing this awesome hobby. Cheers
I did enjoy this video and it's a rubber thumbs up from me lol. Cheers
Thanks very much. I enjoyed making it.
Great, thanks :-) just started my first batch... this was a great help...
Hey @foxxpeu22, how did this wine of yours turn out?
Thanks for this. Now I really want to try this!!
Hope you like it!
Very nice! Thank you!
Thank you too!
Thanks this was helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Damn it seems pretty straight forward, this will be a good option as a student. Ill save money and it’s cool to gift people something I “made” (well sorta made since it’s a kit). Really good explanation in the vid, I have no experience with beer brewing or similar but it seems it’s not to hard of a process
Thanks, It is very easy to do, all you need is patience.
for faster fermentation; pitch yeast and shake fermenter vigoriously for a minute holding thumb on air lock hole. this will incorperate heaps of oxygen for the yeast.
It is only necessary if you use boiled water as boiling removes oxygen and air. As I use tap water it is already fully oxygenated and that makes it better for your back. Thanks for the heads up. I also talk about this in almost every video brewing video I make. I have about 300 videos check them out.
You would be surprised how good that wine was that you threw in your garden. It wouldn't have tasted yeasty as most of the yeast has sunk to the bottom of the bucket.
It did look like I threw a fair bit of wine away the video is a little deceptive. I actually filled the carboy with about three litres of water to loosen up the left over trub and tipped it out. Not going to to waste such great wine I can tell you.
Always taste your wine at every point, its vital you do or you could be brewing a sour batch for all you know..
I have done many wines without issues! Tell me, why bother if you are going to have to wait until the final result anyway? You have started the process may as well finish it. As well as that I feel the more tamper with the process the bigger chance you have at contaminating the finished product. Thanks for the advice much appreciated but I think you should leave it alone while it's fermenting. Cheers, Pierre
@3:42 what about using an electric mixer (with egg beater attachments) while pouring it in? Think that'd work better?
I just made a spinner for my drill. it works a treat. Thank for the suggestion.
Thank you so much for doing this video! I started my first batch ever yesterday, not the same brand but the same exact instructions. What would you think about adding a bit of cinnamon to a fermenting merlot? I love cinnamon but Since it’s my first batch I’m scared to experiment!
Glad it was helpful! I have never thought of using cinnamon/. You would really need to be precise with the amount to add. I think it would definitely be a great addition.
Great video! I'm getting ready to try my first batch this weekend. I noticed it seemed like some sanitizer must have gotten into the wine. Does it not affect the taste or kill the yeast?
Hi @remsnmemphis, sanitizer I use use is a no rinse sanitizer called Slellar San. Pretty much the same as StarSan, it's a acid based food safe sanitizer that is also a mild nutrient for yeast. The small doses we use for sanitizing does not affect the wine at all. Thank you for watching my video and I am so glad you got something from it, Cheers.
Good job! Do you think the Tilt hydrometer will work with Wine making the same way as it does with brewing beer? Again, good job! Greetings from Norway!
It should I am going to try it in the next wine I make.
Did you just sprinkle the yeast and not mix it in? Or just sprinkle and leave? Also if sprinkled ...How long after did you see action in the airlock? Thanks
Hi Mike,. I just sprinkled the yeast in an left it to ferment. It took about a day to start. Fermentation process lasted around 3vweek at 20 degrees Celsius. Here is where I pitch the yeast, 9:36
I've heard that people fill up only 80% of liquid(18.5L). This will make taste more richer.
I have seen that before too. I feel that if you do that you may get too high a gravity and the yeast may stop before it finishes. You probably know this, as yeast eats the alcohol it produces will eventually kill it. The thought would be if you make a richer brew the yeast may die earlier than you need it to thus getting a sweeter wine and stronger flavour. It may be nice if you like sweeter wine.
@@SimpleHomeBrew It's possible but I always check for gravity and can add extra yeast. What do you think?
@@ansvel My thoughts would be if the yeast that has been pitched has died from the alcohol it produced the new yeast will also just die with out producing anything more. I don't think it would hurt to try. Let me know if you do.
@@SimpleHomeBrew Will buy inexpensive kit from Costco and try.
My syphon quit half way through because the oak chips plugged up the dip tube. Frustrating.
Did you try stopping the flow to reversing it back down the pipe? The fluid in the pipe should un-plug it. I hope went well regardless?
is it possible to do 2nd fermentation in the bucket instead of carboy?
Yes, the only issue with what can tell is the carboy has a very narrow opening that can reduce the risk of bacteria getting in and oxygen. It would work if you are careful. When you transfer the wine to the secondary vessel it's for clearing purposes only the fermentation should have finished in the primary.
@@SimpleHomeBrew Thank you for the answer. I have only buckets atm and will try with that first before buying a carboy.
Can a person open the juice and make less than 6 gallons so I dont have to make 25bottles right away?
No, I wouldn't do that as once you open the bag it has been exposed oxygen. You can leave it in the secondary for as long as you like. some people leave it for sometime 12 months before bottling.
@@SimpleHomeBrew got it thanks
ive never seen anyone add their bentonite in primary.
That's strange if you read the instructions it's the first thing you do! Is there a method that would be better? I believe the bentonite clings to particles that would be removed later in the process, my thought would be the earlier the better.
@@SimpleHomeBrew if the recipe says to add it in primary than thats that. but in most brewing videos, they usaully only add it in secondary if the wine isnt clearing naturally
@@SimpleHomeBrew read a few things because i was curious, it might actually positively effect the wine if added during fermentation. (so just keep doing what your doing and ignore my comment lmao)
Mate what's happened Firkins has closed down, but I found Karren over at green leaf
I really don't know. I went there one Saturday arvo and it was shut. No one said anything about it. I do like Greenleaf Karen is very nice I will be going there for all my extracts from now on.
@@SimpleHomeBrew I also, just after I watched your vid on the cab sav I gave it a go (buying the kit from Firkins) I was so impressed I went to them once a week after xmas and they were closed so I asked around and was told they are closed for good so I had to go and see Karren to get the next batch. met Karren and got what I needed so all good. PS. sorry to see a good business close.
@@maker-restorer Yeah I wish they had of told me I could have helped maybe get them get back on their feet. So did Karren have wine kit's in her store.
@@SimpleHomeBrew yes mate she did and asked if I used them often so if you also ask about them she may get more in on the next order, love to a face to face chat some time when you not busy, been a sub for a bit but for some reason you tube cuts me off don't know what's going on with that but not to hard to re sub at times
@@maker-restorer I'm thinking of going to Good Land brewery for a lunch. I will post when I am going and hopefully meet up with some of the local brewing community and catch up.
Its 13 plus ABV safe to put in your fermenter don't throw it out.
I'm sorry, what do you mean?
wine kits just suck in comparison to actual grapes. Once you use real grapes then you will never go back and try another kit.
I would so love to get hold of the real thing, just don't have the means at the moment.
