The kicker, its a limited edition. Last one available from them where I live. Would racking, adding k-meta and topping up with water be all right? Yes it was all added, I followed everything to the letter, except for the full top up part. How cool should it be, I have a fermentatiob...

I'm dumb and it definitely says that, though the ones I've done all have the secondary juice pack and it just says top up with that. I'm going to have to watch that in the future. Thank you for your quick responses and help. I hope I didnt bugger this one, my wife will beat me, haha. (I'm...

I'll have to keep that in mind. I didnt want to add too much water and ruin the kit. All I can think of is that its just bubble marks on the glass maybe.

Yeah I usually leave that much when I rack into my 6. Ive done about 8 batches so far and Ive never seen this, but I also used a new degassing wand and that thing created the cyclone / froth hole like ive never seen.

Panic mode! Haha. Is this just residue from the vicious degassing or am I looking at a mold problem? Its all ready for bottling right now. Smells and tastes fine, for a young wine. I just don't want to bottle sometbing that might make someone sick later. This is the first time ive seen...

In the next few days I'm going to toss together my first stout. I want it to be good but I really have limited homebrew supplies where I am. The only yeast I have available for beer besides for the coopers is a pack of Danstar Nottingham Ale yeast. I have two 500g packs of Muntons Dark DME...

Enjoying a bottle of La Trappe - Quadrupel tonight. This stuff is fiesty.

Up in Campbell River. Just far enough away from anything interesting, unless nature is your thing. Haha.

I have had this happen to me while racking as well, I could be wrong but it looks like things just got a little rattled up. Since you have a long way to go before bottling I would just give it the old wait. Keep an eye on it and see what it does in the next month or so.

Haha. Not just a BCer but a fellow islander at that. :)

I have been lurking around here on and off for the last year or so and thought I would finally make a post. I am three batches of wine, two batches of beer and three batches of mead deep into this wonderful hobby. I love making Mead and Beer, wine is interesting at this point and it keeps...
