Mine has no instructions on it... hmmm. I only added 1/4 tsp. I guess I should go back and add another about another 3/4 tsp...(a little less than that since I have 1.75 gallons)?

Alright, perfect! I just added them. I'll let you know how it turns out in a few days. I'll probably wait till Sunday (4 days), then sample it, and back sweeten if I decide I want to do that.

Thank you, I'll let you know how it turns out!! One last question . Should I stir it up, or just drop it in and let it work? Sorry for all my newbie questions.!

ok, I'll put in 1.5 campden tablets. Are you saying I should also add potassium sorbate (I have some of that too, but how much, if I should add that too?). Thank you

Hi Wally from Missouri!! Oh goodness, I'm so new I didn't see that forum. Thank you for turning me onto it. I've already learned way more in this forum than I have by watching countless YouTube videos! Part of the value is that I can get almost immediate feedback on a specific question...

Thank you for the helpful feedback. I will indeed give it at least another week. This is helpful information. Thank you.

Hi homebrew folks, We just joined the forum a few days ago. For the first time we used 71b yeast for our home brew to make a dry red wine from Welches grape juice. I noticed a marked difference in the fermentation process from using flieshmans active dry yeast. This 71b fermented fast and...

Oh, this is helpful! Thank you!! I'll post on here how this wine turns out using 71b, and how one of the wines turns out that you send me from Kraus. I'm going to try one of those next. Thank you so much. We have only been a part of this form a few days and already got some very practical...

Thank you so much!!!
