Heh! I saw that after I posted. In the future, perhaps I should investigate further before asking here...

Thanks!

No, I was asking seriously. :-) But in my defense, I was highly skeptical...

Is this legit? Looks like a good deal if it is, but seems too good. https://www.hemlinera.com/blichmann-g2-boilermaker-brew-kettle-15-gal?msclkid=94c5cf35a7201c242b4b910551308bf8

I'm in!

I used an online calculator to determine how much acid to bring it down to 3.6. I dissolved that in water and added that and added sulfite again to bring to 50 ppm. Stirred and let it sit for a while and then took pH again and now it is at 3.3, which is not at all what I expected but at least...

Will hitting it with 19 grams of tartaric acid now to get to 3.6 cause problems? If I need to sweeten after, what should I use? Wine conditioner product with sorbate?

Calibrated with new 4.0 solution. Wine still testing 4.0. Wondering if maybe I misread recipe and did 1/4 tsp acid blend instead of 1 and 1/4 tsp. No idea why I am so far off.

I am not much of a wine person, so I am unsure how to describe. Color looks good. Does not taste bad to me. I taste banana and alcohol, but does not taste 'crisp' to me, for lack of a better word, like a dry white wine. I ordered new calibration solution to check meter against. Will check and...

@Yooper , any input? Thanks!

I was worried about the pH meter as well. Cheap meter and my calibration solution is an old mixed solution stored in a tupperware. I ordered new calibration solution to check it against. I don't have ability to measure AT currently.

I tried a banana wine recipe Yooper posted. This is my first attempt at a wine. I am over 7 months into the process and getting ready to bottle soon. I checked SO2 last time I racked and it was around 40, which seemed OK until I checked pH and it was 4.1! Is this normal for banana wine? I am a...

I've brewed a lot but this is my first attempt at a wine. I am over 7 months into the process and getting ready to bottle. I checked SO2 last time I racked and it was around 40, which seemed OK until I checked pH and it was 4.1! Is this normal for banana wine? I am a bit worried because charts I...
