Hi, just a few minutes ago I used scissors to open the package of everything (yeast, chitosan, kielsesol, etc.), it's an all-in-one package wine (Argentia Ridge - Pinot Noir) and by mistake I also cut the chitosan package that was inside (it's the biggest one after all). All is fine but then i...

Hi all, I bought and received a leaking wine pouch yesterday. I probably lost about 1 liter out of the 5.5 liters that was in it (I haven't calculated precisely yet). I was wondering if I could still brew it? It is supposed to ferment in 23 liters with water, so maybe I could fill it up to only...

Any cheap plastic bottle of 750 ml with reusable caps I can buy for my wine? The bottles will be less heavy, kind of unbreakable and will be even cheaper with reusable caps. I'm in Canada, anything I find on the internet is not cheap but maybe I'm missing something. Is anyone using reusable...

Hi all! I'm doing a new test, a 5 gallon bucket of red wine with the main ingredient being Welch's frozen grape juice. This should be interesting! But the problem is that my OG is 1.047, this will probably give me a 7% wine. But there should be enough sugar in it, I don't understand the...

Hi, been doing wine for a few years now, never had problem, but now my glass carboy that I use for secondary fermentation starts to have little crack in it and I find them extremely difficult to clean. Anyone makes wine in only buckets? I don't bulk age my wine, I let it ferment for only 28...

Hi, just what is your OG and FG with a Coopers kit? I tried about 8 of these kits and they all give me the same readings so I was wondering if it's normal and if anyone else achieve a higher alcohol percentage than me. I use 1kg of dextrose, 250g of LME and it gives me 1.040 of OG and 1.010...

Hi, I've been brewing with Cooper's kit with some additional malt, either in powder or liquid syrup, and I've been wondering what does the additional malt that I add (which does not come with the Cooper's can) does exactly? Do I really need it? I was thinking that this additional malt makes...

Hi, I searched and read a lot for this topic but still have some questions left, so here it is, which is all about choosing the best bottles for bottling my beer. For now, I'm using 22oz (710ml) Corona bottles which gives me 30 bottles for one batch of beer and I would like to move on to...
