taste a bit tart and very dry not to much apple

so i started a batch of apfelwien last monday OG 1.0735 took a sample today 10 days later an the gravity 1.001 seems awefully quick to be that low or am i just a noob

as predicted the rhino fart smell is gone only delicious apples remain

Montrachet (SP?) following ed wort's intructions i did at yeast nutrients my brew supply guy recommended it

just started a batch of apfelwine, and i severely underestimated what a rhino fart smells like but in a strange way ive never been so happy to smell something so stanky. god bless home brewing

The kit came with 2 pounds of dextrse I reserved 3/4 cup for bottleing, oh well I have another one going that came from my brewing kit, coopers dark ale and got a batch of apfelwien

well ive let it be in the bottle for about 8 months and it still isnt drinkable, think it will ever mellow out?

Thanks that what i thought, you wouldnt like me when im angry

I did a can of coopers real ale for my first brew. i tried it and it was extremely bitter not just hoppy but sour, 1 week in the fermenter 1 week in the bottle. Is this a sign of a green brew and i should just let it mellow out in the bottle or is this how its supposed to taste or did i mess up?
