Hello all in the wine & cider section.Still very new to the forum and not made owt for 20 years so very rusty and new stuff to learn.That and the fact that there weren't any tinternet back then .
Anyhows,just made a kit of the S.Grundy bilberry wine.Seems to be a lot of sachets in the kit,kieselsol,chitosan,to name but two i've never heard off.
On the advice of my local shop i under filled by a litre to allow for a very gassy first few days of fermentation,then top up to 4.6lts.
I don't know if anyone else has owt good or bad to say about these kits but it seemed like a decent/inexpensive point for a born again brewer like myself to start again.It claims to ferment in 7 days but i shall be keeping an eye on the airlock.
