No problem. I left mine in golden raisins for a long time and developed a little too much body. However this was my best wine made to date.
My raisins are slowly migrating to the top of the jug. I plan on leaving them in there until they are all up there.
FYI - Walmart had bananas on sale for .39 a lb. the other day, so I got 8-10 bunches. Wife was pissed, but any extras can go in the freezer for banana bread. She couldn't understand why I'd buy more bananas before I've even tasted the first batch. Makes sense once you figure out how little it costs to make and how long it takes to mature!
I want to make a 3-5 gallon batch!
I have everything ready to start, one last (probably not last) question:
Is Brewcraft Wine Tannin (Hydrolized Gallotannin) the same as grape tannin?
Thanks.

Your very first wine? Heh, I couldn't have standed making a long term recipe for my first one. Make up a batch of Ed's Apfelwein, you'll be drinking in no time!
yooper how long did it take your banana wine to get this clear?it has a great color.
I'm getting ready to rack mine off of the raisins in a few weeks, and will need to top it off. I thought it said to top it off with white wine, but can't find it in the thread. What kind of white wine should I top it off with?
Thanks,
