    The Forgotten Batch

    Well, Its apparent it foamed over. Gotta wash it out of lock, just a bug attraction. The band of white cottny fluff floating thru the middle is a problem. Research how to kill it. Depends how much O2 got in, it may be best as vinegar. Luck, SLIM

    Banana Wine?

    lemonjelleaux, I have made 5 gallon batches of Bananna wine every 5 yrs for long time.I use 25 lbs old old black spotted nannas. Peptic enzyme & amylase enzyme is required. I rack & rack it for up to 6 months or more. It's my favorite! Of all types I made ..ever! It's also great for fixing...

    I put oak chips on several gallons of white welsh. Although, Takes 8 mths to a year in storage to mellow out right. Ppl seldom believe me it's from a concentrate! Slim

    My DIY, low-budget, concrete-roller grain mill

    TH, from my research over years, I note that the "Stones" in any mill are scored or grooved. I wonder if you were to take a 4.5" angle grinder & cut in diagonal grooves across teh face of your rollers. would it improve the crush & perhaps unload the motor as a happy extra? Slim49

    Welch's Grape Juice Wine

    the oak chips will add a nice taste, but it takes months in the bottle to really hit its stride! hold 1 bottle for a year. And you will see!! put them in the wine at final racking. should wet them in boiling H2O 1st. It looks really good. Slim

    Welch's Grape Juice Wine

    Just do 1 batch!! if you split it up into 2 your getting a VERY light bodied wine, may as well not waste the time!! that is NOT any way to get a test batch . welsch's is a light bodied wine already!! SLIM49
