    Can my wine be saved?

    Thanks for the information. I didn't use any camden tablets, because the whole idea was to make something my wife could drink, and she has a reaction to added sulfites. I'll take that batch as an expected loss, and free up the gallon jug for something else.

    Can my wine be saved?

    In August I made some Apfelwein, some concord grape wine, and some cherry wine. I drank some of the Apfelwein early, and it tasted pretty good, but I was told to wait about six months on it to let the apple flavor come out. Well, at a little over six months I decided to taste it again, and...

    Her Taco is poppin'

    Note that neither guy said the sauce made his taco pop, making it seem even more intentional. Why didn't they just go for it and have the guys say it made their burritos burst.

    SWMBO is pissed...

    Yeah, that was me 25 years ago. I still stand up for myself, and she still screams and punches and cries and kicks and throws things and cuts me off for weeks on end. All I'm saying is don't think that you will ever train your SWMBO. 25 years of fighting and mine hasn't broken a sweat. I...

    Zork Corks?

    I just ordered 100 from Midwest ... they take PayPal. I read up on these and they are being used commercially as well. They haven't been around long enough to say that they will last decades, but they definitely hold up for years and I can't even wait three months to drink my wine, so I'm safe.

    Yeast smell

    I have some Apfelwein that is exactly the same. It is very clear, but still smells and tastes like yeast. Everyone says wait. It has only been a month. Some books say to just wait a year, but most will say three months at least.

    F'ing MutherF'ers stole it!! -- IT'S BEEN RECOVERED!

    This thread was a rollercoaster of emotions: sadness, loss, rage, hatred, then elation, exuberance, drunken nakedness, dancing! Ed always delivers the finest of everything. :mug:

    kegs: if you had it to do over again ...

    I'm less than a mile from either Dragonmead or Kuhnhenn's right now because I work in Warren. But I don't ever want to taste anything like that Belgian Trippel for a long, long, long time. I had a microbrew sampler in Houghten (in the UP) once, and didn't like most of them. Even the ones that...

    I would patent it as the first carbonation resistent beer.

    Baby Teething

    From cutting teeth to borrowing your car, kids exist to suck the life force out of you and then leave your dried out corpse behind. It is the natural order of things.

    First day of school, what a CF!

    Yeah, my three kids went back to school today. I guess I should have said "good luck!" or something, but I had to get to work.

    Do these jeans make my ass look fat?

    SWMBO just wants to know if the jeans flatter her or not. Naturally, I never say that her ass looks fat, but I do tell her if the jeans are cut wrong for her. If she asks for an explanation of "cut wrong" I say that maybe they are just the wrong color. If they are standard blue jeans, I blame...

    Why does wine need to be degassed?

    Riddle me this....who wants to win $1,000,000?

    Switch one of the good lines with the bad lines and see if it helps. Naturally I only expect $50,000 for this troubleshooting tip.
