Iv have two kits sitting in my cupboard from 2013 a Beaverdale barolo and a cantina merlot...question is do you think they will be worth using or will past there best....been a bit lazy but am planning to start brewing again..
Funny this because I always found that my white kits always had a certain taste all very similar "homebrewie" ended up giving them away but my reds iv really enjoyed...
Don't water down! Brew to 21 litres every time..iv been making these kits for over 7years now.
Also what people forget is that adding more sugar ups the alcohol but in turn the extra alcohol is liquid so thins out the brew as well.
Beaverdale are good kits don't need much medaling with...
Just bottled this one...normally only do kits but thought id give this ago.....well what can I say wasn't expecting anything other than drain cleaner but it's quite good the wife likes it flat like rose wine.
Just waiting for it to fizz up!
Bottom line in now hooked on home made home...
Just a quick post to say hello. Iv been brewing and reading this forum for a long time but whilst I'm waiting for my my batch of wine to filter over I thought is sign up!
Cheers phil
