I've bottled my first attempt at making wine (white) a few weeks back and it has a little sediment in the bottom of the bottles.

I wondered if this is OK to drink and could it have any bad affects on me?
I sure i read somewhere that it could upset ya stomach and probably give ya the shits! But is that the worst of it?

Sorry for the stupid questions but if i'm a little dubious about drinking then no one gonna touch it..... lol

I thought all homebrew had sediment at the bottom :/

when you pour it just try to keep it in the bottle if you dont want it in your drink
I've not been ill off mine but I am brewing cider don't know if it makes a diff lol
 
OK finished the first glass and while its not wonderful i haven't thrown up, **** myself or gone blind yet so guess i'll have another!


:cheers:

Wine shouldn't, but it won't do you any harm.

As Minx says, pour carefully, or decant before serving.

glad you haven't :sick: yourself yet that has to be a good sign lol

Home made wine can be fizzy too, but even fizzy wine shouldn't really have a sediment.
 
Nothing drastically wrong, maybe bottled too soon, but some wines (particularly reds) which you think are perfectly clear and have been matured in bulk for a few months can still throw a light sediment.
