Yeah I tossed it. Thanks for the advice

Yeah I think it's ceramic. It's weird, I'll wash it and then when it dries, it comes back. I can wipe it off/wash it off and it comes back after it completely dries.. Don't know why or what causes it. I was hoping someone here would know.

Hey guys, I made a 10% metabisufite mix to add to my wine and it said use some warm water so I pulled out one of my mugs and threw some water in the microwave, added the potassium metabisulfite and mixed and then added some cool water. I let it sit in my mug while adding to my wine. Then I...

Thanks It's been in my cupboard as well so not getting any sunlight but it's about a 1/4 bottle so I'll likely just replace it.

Yeah your probably right.. probably what the guy at the shop was gonna tell me anyways..

That's a good idea with the Iodophor. As far as the yeast, any recommendations for these two wines? If it's not something I have, I'll probably just buy some fresh stuff anyways.

Well I thought about posting here first to get accurate info. You never know what is posted online. I'm gonna double check with the guy at the homebrew shop to make sure he agrees. If anything, please tell me I'm wrong if you see anything obvious. That goes for everyone reading this.

Lol, they've been kept in my kitchen cabinet. Sometimes the AC is turned down when I'm out at work so maybe the temperature reached mid 80's at the most. The pectic enzyme is powder stored in a ziplock, same with Fermax and Acid Blend. I tasted the acid blend and it tasted normal. The potassium...

Yeah my friend suggested trying to make a starter but not sure if I have the right yeast for what I want to make anyways. What about the rest? Any idea?

Hi guys, I used to make mostly wine and cider quite a few years back (about 8 to 10) and I got really busy and stopped. Now I'm looking to start back up and still have quite a bit of ingredients/additives. I was wondering if I should toss everything and start over or are some things still okay...

I need some help with the wiring of my AC unit. I want to wire it to my temperature controller so that it is always cooling until the temperature controller shuts it off. I tried my best to make all the wires in the schematic the actual colors that they are. (grey equals white). From what I saw...

Hello Everyone, I was hoping you could help me with wiring my AC unit to "always on" so that it can be controlled by a ranco digital temperature controller. My freezer went out and I'd like to build a walk in like some of the other postings on this forum. I got the instructions from...

I did look on craigslist but the freezers were all smaller than I need. I don't know if I can find one as large as I have for that inexpensive. Mine is about 25cf and I would like even more space than that so I might need two of them. While looking through the forum, I've seen people building...

Hello everyone, I was hoping to get some suggestions from everyone as to what to do for a fermentation area as my freezer just went out. I was able to ferment about 4 or 5 carboys in it at the same time and kept it temperature controlled with my Ranco digital. This got me thinking rather than...
