Hi guys,
So i started my journey into the art of homebrew wine last night. I thought id start off easy and bought a cellar 7 (7day wine kit) thinking i couldnt go wrong with that one. That was my first mistake! Second mistake was misreading the instructions. It states to add the grape juice and TOP UP to 21 litres, however, i ADDED 21 litrrs thus making a total of 26 instead of 21.
My question is, have i ruined it or is there a way to rescue this batch and prevent any permanent mental scarring?
Some other info as i think it may be of help, i attempted to read the hydrometer, it hovered around .65 (assuming i read it correctly). I'm guessing this is far too low? Have i just made 26 litres of alocohol free grape flavoured water? :-)
I appreciate any advise you can offer and if I've posted this in the incorrect section then i do apologise!
Edit: I read the hydrometer completely wrong, it is 1065 and not .65
