I have been making various WOW's and variations for a while now following Moley's excellant guide but was wondering if anybody has tried with double quantities?? i.e 2 litres WGJ & 2 litres orange per gallon. Would this increase the body of the wine or would it just be overpowering??

I agree that you get what you pay for. Before finding WOW I used to make 30 bottle kits from California Connoisseur (mainly the Pinot Noir). I used to add a bit of sugar to bring them up to the 14% mark (as standard I think tehy work out at around 11%). They were very good and if you can manage...

Well, the trial is under way but due to poor planning on my part is is a bit different from my first post I have got: 1 gal using pressed apple juice 1 gal from concentrate with varying sweetner added at bottling stage 1 gal from concentrate plus ginger (I used one piece of stem ginger and I...

It's Iggy Pop, Lust for Life Although it isn't the opening line.... Next one: Wanna tell you a story, about the house-man blues

They actually taste quite sweet. No sharpness to them at all. I was quite surprised given the colour

I picked these today: From a tree like this: I assume these are also cherry plums (they definately taste a cross between damsons and cherries) I would guess at 3 lbs fruit plus sugar for a gallon of wine :?: There are also a few trees with the yellow fruits on like the ones in Davids...

I think everyone is stuck on this one. :?: Any clues???

I made my first TC (using ASDA value apple juice) a couple of months ago and must admit it was good after a month in the bottle. As I have 5 dj's empty at the moment I have decided to run a trial with the view of picking the best for a 23litre batch. So far I have got: 4.5 litres Pressed apple...

I was unsure if I had the correct title. :oops: Special brew, Bad Manners Next... I went balling the other night I started drinking and got real tight

It's Dean Martin and I think it's called "Wine Drinker"???

A similar thing to the film lines topic but this time openeing lines of songs Guess the song and artist then put the next one up. I'll styart with this one.... "I met her in a club down in Old Soho where you drink champagne and it tastes just like Cherry Cola" Simon

I read somewhere that sloe whiskey is good (they did say better than sloe gin). As I have a few bottles of cheap blended, I'll give it a go this year (as well as some sloe gin). Probably follow the same recipe as for sloe gin and then spend a night comparing the two :cheers:

I used to make a alifornia connoisseur Pinot Noir and that was good after a month and very good after 6. Never tried a Shiraz but would assume the quality would be the same

I'm glad you mentioned not to do prune juice Moley. I usually browse the juice section when shopping with an eye on future WOW's and had considered getting a prune juice . All the juices I use are either the 1 litre long life juice cartons or the fresh juices, either from concentrate or not...

I picked up the WOW bug from this forum a while ago and have been making them ever since. Ones I've done so far: Red Grape plus: Cranberry Cranberry and Rasperry Cranberry and Blackcurrent (very good) Cherry Blueberry (the favourite so far) Standard WOW And currently fermenting, white grape...
