I am making frozen strawberry wine as per Jack's Recipe. It was fermenting well in the primary but when i transferred to the secondary it stopped. Is this normal, this is my first wine. I have attached a picture. Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestions, I am going with the normal blueberry wine recepie and the frozen strawberry wine. Any thoughts on this.

I have brewed beer, and now looking to get into the wine game. I am looking for a very detailed recipe of the easiest fruit (preferable berry) wine to make. I have seen a lot of recipes, but I just want a simple good quick ageing recipe. Any suggestions, also any hints or tips. I have read all...
