  I think maybe I found the culprit from the MoreBeer PDF that LovesIPA posted... DMS... I
  wouldn't describe the flavor as "Cooked vegetables, especially creamed corn, cabbage, tomato,
  shellfish/oyster-...

  So I just did my first batch of beer recently after about a year of winemaking, an Irish Red
  Ale. All in all, it came out really good, but there's a few things I noticed that I think I can
  do better n...

  God I love Maker's. Thinking about it's got me sad I bought scotch instead of bourbon on my
  last booze-run. I think Jim Beam might do in a pinch. I find Daniel's too harsh, but maybe
  that's just me.

  I caught the tail end of one of those "How It's Made" or "Factory Made" shows on Science or
  Discovery or whatever where they were talking about how ice apple ciders are made, and it got
  me intrigued. ...

  The bottle doesn't say what type of cherries, but I did find one of Jack Keller's recipes for
  morello cherries, which are apparently sour/tart, that I think I can adapt: Wine [Dry] (3) 8
  lbs morello ...

  I haven't done anything yet. I've been considering trying some fining agents, perhaps starting
  with some bentonite and seeing if that does any good, but I've been too busy with other
  projects to tackl...

  I was under the impression that if it was pectin, it would be more evenly distributed through
  the wine... but maybe I'm confusing myself after reading hundreds of different posts and
  articles. Do you ...

  I scored at the local grocer today on a great deal on Organic Just Tart Cherry juice -- --
  and I want to try making a cherry wine with this, picked up a gallon's worth. Any clue as to
  where I might ...

  I've got a blackberry melomel that I started back in February, it's been in the secondary now
  since May... I was hoping by now it would have cleared out much better, but you can see there's
  still quit...

  I'm finally ready to bottle my first batch of mead. It seems like it's been ages (it's been
  about 7 months) since I started, and I can't wait to taste it. I know I should wait at least a
  couple of wee...
