BB have a look at this - http://www.thewinepages.org.uk/acid.htm
Bottled this rgj strawberry n kiwi just a week ago and my missus polished off the last bottle tonight, she says its the best yet. You will like this one chippy for sure. Will have to make a bigger batch like you're doing next time.
MrP i cannot speak for Frogbrew but i have read (and made wine following) hundreds of supermarket juice recipes and all use "run-of-the-mill sugar from the supermarket" no need to pay for brewing sugar. :thumb:
Thanks Chippy - that's quite reassuring. As I said - I've always used brewing sugar, as that's what various kits have stipulated. But your info has just made my home-brewing even better value \o/
Thank you!
Frogbrew, did you use brewing sugar, or run-of-the-mill sugar from the supermarket? I've always made from kits (more recently some WOWs) and have always used brewing sugar. Thus far, the results have been just fine, but have just come back from Asda armed with the RGJ Strawberry & Kiwi, and am going to take over the kitchen later to make a batch, and wondered what your batches were made with. It sounds so good (the missus is already asking how long it'll take to be ready!), so wanted to make sure it comes out as well as it possibly can.
Thoughts?
Like chippy says mr p, any sugar will do t&l/whitworths. I've been getting it from poundstretcher just lately at 49p a kilo.
Let us know how your first try at WOW goes...
I'm so glad I found this forum - the help and advice so far has been great, and really looking forward to seeing how the rgj strawberry & kiwi comes out - Mrs P was asking within minutes of me putting it all together - just when it was going to be ready!
The rgj strawb n kiwi does leave a lot of pulp behind but I topped up with apple juice after first rack as I lost probably half ltr more than usual wows. Some sort of filter would be good to minimise the loss.
