Hi everyone Bit of advice if you could, I want to make a batch of ginger wine using the riddles ginger compound. With two pounds of sugar added to it if I just add some yeast will if ferment out ok.

Think it's been on for 2 weeks now.

Hi. I'm about to sterilise all my beer bottles, and I was wondering do I need to brim them with sterilising solution or is half full and shaken up ok. Can I then use than solution in other bottles. And how full of beer do I fill the bottles my guess would be to the bottom of the necks.

It is a kit that I'm doing.

Hi I've had 6 bottles of rose wine on the go for about 2 week and it seem to have stuck, it's been reading 1040 since at least Sunday. I've shaken it up and put it in a warmer place. And it seems to be clearing, it taste fine. What should I do.

Hi I've checked the gravity of my wine again today, I've have given it a good shake and left it in a warmer place. I am getting the same reading as I did on Sunday 1040. The wine it even starting to clear. Surely if its clearing then there is no activity inside? What should I do?

I like it, that's my type of pint. Just me having brain fade ha ha.

Thanks I'll do that. No point in spoiling it. Thanks for you help.

So I should leave as it is for a while yet until it reaches the recomended SG. Then transfer it to a sterile container. Stabilise it and leave it to clear. What if after another week I've still got the same SG reading.
