Ladies and Gents,
I am about to make my first wine kit for the little woman and she wants the Orchard Breezin' Strawberry Riesling. I was reading some info on the web and I see that several people recommend using sugar to bump the ABV. In fact, there are 3 things that Id be interested in messing with:
1) Using sugar to bump ABV. (Should I just use cane sugar, say 3 lbs?)
2) Using 1/2 or 3/4 of the Flavor Pack to cut back on huge sweetness a bit.
3) Using a Wyeast liquid strain rather than the dry yeast that comes with it.
-Are these advisable changes?
