Hey all,
Im making lemon wine right now. It's from lemon aid concentrate. I used the concentrate as directed with dilution of water but I sweetened it to make 8% alcohol. It has fermented to dryness now and I have added potassium sorbate to stop it from fermenting again. It has been seven days since I added the PS.
My questions are:
When can I sweeten it? Is 7 days good?
Do I clear it before I sweeten it or after?
Will the finished drink go bad because it isn't really a wine(8% alcohol)? How long will it keep?
I think I will be diluting it with water too because the lemon flavor is very strong so the alcohol content may be a little lower.
