Do we need the same quantity when we use the fresh rose petals? In your written recipe, there is no white grape juice. Would it mean that white grape juice is not mandatory to add?

I’m really enjoying your videos! I’ve just recently decided to start making wine from fruit and stumbled across your videos. I actually was just at this store and he sold me all my wine making equipment and gave me some pointers for just getting started. I live only about 20 minute drive from there. I’m currently on my 6th day of primary fermentation of my first batch of strawberry wine with my home grown strawberries. I can’t wait to try it. Thanks for all the great info so far. You guys are great.

Thats an old favorite very nice.

Please make Rice wine..

Hello.. can this same procedure be used for rice wine?

Dimana letak kesalahannya?

I have the bottles, corks (#9 1 3/4”) and corker from your amazon links. I bottled 2 batches totaling 56 bottles and 6 of them kept pushing the cork back out within minutes. This was a few weeks ago. We just refrigerated those and drank them but any idea on how to fix this?

Hai..., pernahkah membuat rice wine? Tolong share recipe ,thanks🙏🏻

Just picked 8Lbs of strawberries from the patch and was thinking id use about 5lbs and try a gallon of wine just to see if i like it. Gonna try this recipe out 😁

Wow this is amazing👍👍👍👍 I do have a questions, can I keep my fermentation for a month? I’m going away for a month and wondering if this fermentation can hold. Thanks.

I will be making this soon. I love root beer. Just have to order the extract. I think I have everything else that is needed.

I love your videos and want to start making wine but I can't find your info. on supplies so that I can calculate the investment to get started.

Bagaimana jika "wine tanin" tidak ada?? Bolehkah di skip?

Help! I’m so bummed. I followed your instructions to the “T” and added in my packet of yeast yesterday afternoon. When I got home from work today the air lock wasn’t bubbling and there weren’t any real bubbles /bubbling action on the top of the grape juice, but when I stirred it it started bubbling like soda pop. I don’t know what to do. Would it be okay to add another packet of yeast? P.S - I use RO water since that’s what we pay for in our home. We live out here in West Texas and the well water & city water here is horrible and nasty.

You mentioned bentonite at the beginning but I didn't see you add it in the mix. When is it added?

I loooooove it here! 💜💜💜

One thing that discourages me about making things like homemade wine or baking or pickling is the logistics. I'd rather make them in larger quantities than smaller if you are going to the trouble of securing dozens of items for the process. Small and simple is better for weekly consumption, easy cleanup, and minimal storage. Example: I make two gallons of limoncella and yerba mate in 12 hours.

Is scaling the recipe possible for a smaller batch?

Hello. I love learning to make wine watching your videos. I have a question on this video. You say set wine back for 30-45 days. Is this two separate times or just 1 time? Sorry I’m a dummy from Alabama. Thanks for making these videos

I have problem with dead wine I made mistake and put hot water with sugar yeast and all turbo yeast Then after few days it stopped Yesterday I put new yeast it looked like it's going but it stopped again nothing happen And it's not sweet either 8 kg sugar Made wine 2 times was no problem This is 1st time I'm lost and cofused

To those like me that dont like the corking and uncorking process, you can use bormioli rocco glass bottles. They are the bottles with the swing latching lid. (Note I wouldn't use them for long term storing) the wine I make doesn't last the month so it's not an issue.

Please help... 2 times I made 1 Wine in plastic container All good with turbo yeast I asked edvice a did it and no problem The 3rd time my friend gave me spacial container for wine with the bubbles machine I made 1 mistake I put very hot water to melt the sugar included with the yeast At same time It was going on bubbling then after a while stopped 2 or 3 day's dead I been told I put hot water no good Put new yeast I put new yeast it was like putting chips to boiling oil frying pan I thought great it started again But no. Very soon it stopped again No foam no bubbling nothing Should I give up put it away a make new? I made wine before room temperature was same all same But I'm afraid I'm going to lose all those 25 litters and have to start new all It don't taste sweet either

Great video as usual. you have helped me a lot over the past year. i have moved away from fruit and have been using fruit wine base, its less messy than real fruit. I am however going to try your watermelon strawberry wine. how much back sweetening do you normally do. i have been using 5.25 cups per 5 gal.

Was wondering if there was a way to do 1 gallon with Liquor Quik. Any suggestions? Thought about getting small bottles. Have you done it?

Love love love mangos. This one going on my to do list. I have a mango cutter. It's kinda like an apple cutter. So much easier.

I use marbles to bring the headspace up. That way i will not be diluting my wine.

Hi Todd, the Strawberry/Banana wine is so tasty!!! I bottled 26 of them. I was also going to tell you that I finally bottled my plum wine which ended up taking close to 11 months from start to finish. This was the wine I told you about that I did so many things wrong with that I thought I would probably have to throw it out. It was a frustrating, but also an enjoyable experience working with a wine that went from totally cloudy for many many months to absolutely clear. I had racked it about seven times using multiple clearing agents and adding more pectic enzyme a couple times also. This was the wine I started before I found your awesome channel. I made 6 of your wines and bottled them before I even bottled this plum one. I made the plum wine sweet like your wife, Laura likes. It taste very good. I am calling it Plum Delight. Thanks, for all your advice, knowledge, and encouragement in my wine making hobby!!! I really enjoy our communication.

Thank you for the informative video! :) I have two questions: 1. Is it necessary to smash the fruit before putting it in the mesh bag? 2. How long is the product's best before and expiration date?

Hi, I have been fermenting for 14 days. The bubbles are still only 30 sec apart. Do I keep waiting for the 1 minute mark, or do I rack the wine now?

My local group is saying I need to degas the wine after primary fermentation, but I didn't see that in this video. What's your take?

I just wish it wasn't called "kill us all" lmao.

I made strawberry banana and now I racked it and I have hydrogen sulphide smell. What do you do for this?

I have been looking for a video from you about how to make a small batch blush from grapes. I have both red and white muscadine grapes and wanted to know how to do that. I’m not even sure how many pounds of grapes I would need for this either. I have made some of your other small batch wines but would appreciate any help in this since it would be my first time trying to make a blush. Thank you.

Do I have to top off with extra wine? I don't have any that's not store bought

We make Dandelion jelly. It’s really good! I can’t just imagine the wine! 🍷

Thanks! Great video!

I’m new to wine making and have to thank you for making it so simple to understand. I have found a wine/ brew store in my area. You have inspired me with ideas and mixes! Thank You.

Hey Todd, how many pounds of sugar do you use for your strawberry watermelon recipe? Thanks!

I just want to thank you for all the info you have shared. I've been picking blackberries and sand plums for days. Next will be concord grapes. Started a gallon batch of blackberry today. Want to make sure I get it right before doing a five gallon batch. Wish me luck and thank you again.

How many gallons of water do you need to add to the 5 Gallon strawberry / watermelon batch?

Hi Todd, question for you. When I get new wine bottles that I just take of out packaging do they really have to be sanitized? I have been sanitizing my never been used bottles but just asking. My Banana/Strawberry wine is now crystal clear after using some Super Kleer on it a few days ago. Tomorrow I am going to backsweeten and bottle. Excited to see how it taste!!

HI. HOPE YOU AND YOUR WIFE ARE DOING WELL. I BOUGHT SOME OF THE VANILLA BEANS FROM AMAZON. ON THE PACKAGE IT SAYS TO CUT THE BEANS INTO 1/2 INCH PIECES. WOULD THIS NOT PUT ALL OF THE VANILLA INTO THE SOLUTION AND CAUSE YOU NOT TO BE ABLE TO USE THE BEANS AGAIN .

Me again.. lol… I see you added the Bentonite after the first racking into the carboys. I’m a little confused as to “how many times” you rack your wine from carboy to carboy, and at which time do you add the Bentonite. Sorry to be your biggest pest!!

The addition of vanilla and salt really stepped the flavor up another level!

Don’t know what happened. My wine got cloudier after the bentonite😭

So glad I came across this video. I purchased a fermenter a few years back and never used it. Hoping to make a few batches using this recipe!

Thank you for this channel. Finally got started on some mixed berry wine. Also used your mint summer wine recipe to start a lemon balm wine as it grows like weeds in our English garden! Hope I've got the conversions from American to Imperial measures right. Thanks again, great videos for us newbies.

Would the process be the same if I used fresh grape juice. I have concord grapes in my garden. Would I still add water.

I'm missing it when your done with your primary fermentation, do you rack and put bent-clay in or are you racking 2-3 times without the bent-clay? If so you put bent-clay in on your 3-4rack? Cause I've been putting bent-clay in after my primary fermentation, with it still coming out haze. After 2-3 rack.. Help....

HI. HOPE YOUR DOING WELL. HOW WOULD YOU MAKE RUM EXTRACT
