Also if you age you're wine if you think its good now. Give it time. If you do it right it will be 1000% better in a year. And doing it right isn't hard. Well waiting is the hardest part. If you make 5 gallons of wine.... Or if you want 5 gallons at the end I would make at least 6 to start...

Can anyone tell me in simple terms the difference between yeast energizer and nutrient?

Since I'll be dealing with low temps in my place all winter. "I can't control my indoor heat" would it be a good practice to heat my must till the yeast are in full party mode an then take the heat out. Unless I am doing a red?

Thanks! Sounds great!
