I live in South Africa CT and there are loads wineries nearby to where I am and as it is so hard to find any yeast apart from quick or brewers (which makes **** wine) so I am thinking of asking one of my local wineries for some yeast. If I were to (and they said yes) what would they most...

Would S-04 yeast work well?

And I'm wondering if this setup is alright, I'm only making about a gallon. The first bottles is the primary, second is secondary and I'm thinking of using the glass bottle to bottle half the contents and the rest in pet bottles. I'm going to use Joe's Quick Grape Mead recipe. What are your...

would ale yeast work?

What kind of bottles are good for bottling? And are any of these bottles any good? Thanks =].

Alright then, I think I'm sorted =]. I'll buy a bucket probably this weekend and then get started. Thank you all for helping me out =].

What would happen if I were to brew this in a 5 liter bottle?

It's bubbling again but really slowly, is it possible that within the process most of the yeast got away?

I'm a little pissed off at the moment, my friend thought it may have been a problem and without letting me know he poured the contents using a teabag mesh and a funnel and poured the contents to a whole different demijohn =[. There seems to be no yeast activity at all now so I put the demijohn...

I used Edworts apfelwein recipe exactly as mentioned in a small, plastic demijohn. After about 5 days of fermenting (nicely) I have now come across these small thick brown bubbles that have just recently started appearing amongst usual white froth. They don't look like blotches (as they seem...

+ 0.5 = 12312

Is it possible to add any other juices whilst it is fermenting? I only have one carboy so I can't make a secondary to do this =[.
