Published (2009-12-20 08:50:00)
Old Orchard's web site says 8oz is considered one serving. If you DAGS one serving of fruit is a cup or 8oz of real fruit. I suppose with that and Keller's recipes I would base a recipe on a one for one by volume for wine, ie. one gallon of juice to make one gallon of wine. Of course the SG, acids, tannis, etc should be adjusted for winemaking. http://www.oldorchardjuice.com/juicefacts.htm...

Have a Pear Melomel that I bottled like a dumby while a bit cloudy.
It's now cleared nicely but of course there's fluff in the bottle.
I'd like to re bottle it. Thought about opening the bottles and
siphoning into a carboy to let it settle then bottleing. Another
thought was siphoning directly into bottles and recorking.
The benifits of the former is it'll ...

Tom -
I am a member of a club, and we have had discussions about this from
time to time. I'm not a lawyer, but I don't believe the law on this
is cut and dried - if nothing else, it will vary from state to state.
However, I don't believe that disclaimers, waivers, etc. between
members of the club would be of much use. The exposure here would be
the potential liability to a third party,...

I print my labels on plain paper and use a Q-tip to brush a little milk
on the outer edges of the label. They stick well and come off in a
flash with warm water. Not fancy but very versatile and quite quick.

I have a high acid Vidal wine from this falls harvest which has a TA
of .80 and PH of 3.15. I just pulled it from the garage fridge where
it was kept at 40 degrees for three weeks. It has been sulphited and
is completely dry. Is there anything that can be done at this stage
to give the wine a less bitter taste?
Actually, the numbers do not seem all that bad. ...
