Default Wine Making

Another G2D boozey thread I'm afraid.


Just added the stabiliser & finings to a youngs cabernet kit. Tested it of course; and it tasted like very weak vodka and juice, what the hell?!

I'm very very young too. That means I'm undeniably impatient!

just be careful with the homebrew stuff, it can be very bad for your health. great at the time, and very enjoyable.

My godfather, I recall, from when I was younger, always had the old homebrew on the go. but always suffered from kidney stones for years. It came up in conversation once, perhaps with a doctor or whatever, and they found the reason why he was always ill....it was the brew!!

how did they know it was the brew?

I dont see what can be so bad about drinking homebrew, its just fermented fruit. its things which have had lots of stuff added to it like preservatives i'd be worried about.

Because he stopped making loads of homebrew, and would you know it, the stones went too
