    Can I use beer yeast to make wine?

    I initially bought 2litres of the juice and boiled it up and poured it over the frozen fruit and mashed it all up, (I thought I would be able to top it up with water but then soon realised it only made like 5litres and I wanted 25 so it would have just been a watery wine.

    Can I remove the must from my fermenting brew?

    Have I Ruined My Brew?

    Hi Moley, thanks for the welcome! I'm glad you have said that and my batch is still good to go! If the kit is a 7 day kit, how long would you recommend to leave it for? - I've done this kit before in the past, and bottled it after the 7 days and I didn't think it tasted that good! Would...

    Have I Ruined My Brew?

    Hey guys, I bought a young's 6 bottle kit to give brewing a go. I started it on Sunday night, mixed my sugar with my boiling water, added the grape juice, topped it up with cold water, added the yeast, nutrients and oak chips, and have left it there to stand until today. It was kept in a small...
