Hi,
I am looking to make up a one gallon/five liter batch of Turbo Cider. Looking for recipes online, I notice that some add sugar and some don't. I am wanting to make a dry cider so I was thinking I would not need any sugar...but... would my yeast need to feed on this? If I added the sugar...
Hi,
What does infected wine taste like?
I made some tea wine which fermented without any problems. When I racked it off to clear it tasted like it should - like a really young wine. However, over the next month or so, the wine did not really clear despite using VinClear. I racked it off to...
I'm pretty much following Clibit's posting here..

I used Marris Otter malt and Cascade hop pellets. the yeast I used Young's general purpose home brew yeast. There is quite a bit of sediment in the demijohn, partly...
Hi,
Over the last couple of weeks I have been fermenting my first AG brew. It looks as though it’s done fermenting now and I am ready to move to the next stage. But, before I do so, I would like check that I am actually doing this right.
I plan to do the same thing as I do with wine at this...
Thank you for the advice. I followed the advice in the link you posted this last weekend, and now have my first gallon of AG beer fermenting away nicely. Yay! I used Maris Otter grain and Cascade hops, I slightly over pitched with generic home brew yeast. It's looking good so far...

Hi,
I wanted to have a go at brewing an all grain smash beer and I need a little advice on working out the quantities of ingredients.
I am looking to make a really small batch. I’ve been brewing wine for a number of years now and so my fermenting gear is focused around 1 gallon/5 liter...
This year I have started with making my own wow wines with the traditional mix of grape and orange juice. However, with current shortages, I am finding it harder and harder to get hold of grape juice. While technically not a wow wine, can I make a wine from a mix of other juices? For example, A...
Hi,
Maybe that's it. Although I let the water cool before tipping it into FV it may well have been too hot. Although I do not know the actual temperature, the wort would have been warm to the touch but not boiling. If I has splashed myself with the mix it would not have been a problem.
Oh...
Hi,
Yes, I have a Hydrometer. I've read up on how to use it, but I am not sure when. I was planning to try it later in the week. If I get two readings that are the same it is ready for bottling and I know the gravity. My theory anyway.

Hi,
I've been attempting my first ever brew and I am not sure if anything has gone wrong. I need some advice if possible.
I'm brewing a Munston's Continental lager kit and the brew has been in the FV now for about a week. I am concerned that not much is happening on the fermentation side and...
