I used Lalvin EC-118. My starting gravity was 1.153 and my ending was 1.053. I haven't added anything but the Camden tabs since I first made my must. My last reading for final gravity of 1.053 was in September. I've had it in the Carboy ever since.

It's been moved, but this is still here. I hadn't used the app in over a year and couldn't find where I needed to be.

Thanks Yooper, this troll appreciates all of your insight.

I apologize if this is in the wrong section. I'm using app and am having trouble navigating it since I was gone about a year.

Hello, I recently started a 3 gallon batch of dandelion wine. I used 3 quarts of petals only as well as the juice and rind of 6 oranges and 3 lemons. For yeast I went with Lalvin EC-1118. After adding the sugar to the must, I had some leftover must that was displaced from the sugar. I placed...

I won't be able to keg this batch. I hope to invest in a keg set up in the near future. Any suggestions on keg set ups or packages?
