    Well if you look at the pictures on page one, that is right after I rigged the blow off tube, it is now full of foam like you see in the closeup of my cap. My overflow bottle is now a milky white. When I checked it this morning foam was still building up inside... Maybe it will stop in a few...

    How do you drink your Apfelwein?

    jcobbs, I p;an on doing the same with 2 gals for christmas and new years. I will put the rest in a 3 gal carboy and leave it alone! Nice to hear you can still drink it a little young! I plan on putting a touch of applejuice in it to sweeten and for apple taste.

    The Ice wine is a kit, so it has everything you need to make it. The call it Ice wine style since it is not up to the true Ice wine standards (I am guessing). I reread the original post from the guy who used Wyeast 3068 and he said he only used 1 # of sugar. That might be my problem of...

    Synovia answered your question. I learned about it from another thread on here called better than Apfelwein https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f32/better-than-apfelwein-29003/ If you do this yeast, make sure you rig a blow off tube, I caught mine in time before it made a huge mess.

    Glad to know it came out good. I have high hopes for this. Did you also use Wyeast 3068? I think the smallest batch I would make is 3 gallons. :) Just ordered a Okanagan Peach Icewine Style kit for my wife. It makes 3 gal.

    Newbie Question - Recommended Starter Kit/Website

    I bought the basic kit from www.finevinewines.com, it came with everything I needed, plus some things that just makes life easier. Also if you buy an equipment kit from him, you get 10% off of a wine kit. The equipment kit and wine kit including S/H cost me $190.00.

    Wow a bunch of jokers huh? Just some info, if you use Wyeast 3068 rig a blow off tube. I was told you really didn't need one, but at least with this combonation I am getting a lot of foam.

    Raspberry Chocolate

    Thanks for the info! I was thinking about trying Wade's Strawberry Chocolate port. What are your thoughts on that? or should I stick with a kit? Just curious are your family/friends excited at Christmas to see what else comes out of your cellar?
