I did some of the exact things you did with that kit. Wish I watched your video before I started but all is going well so far. Started today. Thanks for sharing your video.
Sean Bean taking the time to show us how to make wine - Thanks! We loved you as Boromir and Ned Stark as well as all the other wonderful film and TV shows you grace us with. ;)
No problem, thanks for watching. I loved making it. The wine turned out very good and lasted only a very short time as it was very tasty. Cheers Pierre
nice vid dude, you didn't sanitise the water measuring jug...but cant be any worse than crushing grapes with your feet as was tradition in wine making. :)
Thanks. I sanitized the jug a few times. I just did it mostly off video. Thanks for the heads up. It was good of you to take the time. If it tastes like feet I will very disappointed. Cheers Pierre
Thanks for the advice, I will consider doing that in the future. Thanks you for taking the time to guide me in the right direction. I love this kind of feedback.
You are spot on there, it also binds to proteins in the fluid, Bentonite is negatively charged and will attach to the positively charged particles floating in the fluid thus pulling the end result to the bottom of the carboy as it is heavier than the fluid it self clearing out a lot of particles. Thank you for mentioning this, it is important for wine making. Cheers Pierre😀
I'm looking at some of the winexpert kits that used to have 10 Litres of Grape must reduced to 8 Litres together with image re-branding - Pricing remains the same....tut tut tut
@@SimpleHomeBrew You probably have old stock as their range is changing, check out their facebook page, it was posted there a few months ago and you may also see the new products rolling into your suppliers. facebook.com/watch/?v=1117538375305131
I ordered Lodi Ranch 11 cabernet sauvignon California from Winexpert for $179, from their label information it added 10% sugar in this juice, but California state prohibits chaptalization. I will not buy any from this company.
Yep doesn't affect it at all. I use Steller San. It's ratio is 1.5 - 1000. There is no chance for it to make any kind of impact. It is very affective against infection.
Entertaining, but I tuned in to learn, not watch Forest Gump makes wine on his first time out. Maybe read the directions before starting? Good sound track
Please be aware there is the second part to this video all your answers may be here. ruclips.net/video/racPPusHz_I/видео.html

You have just made my day. thank you I am nearly cried I laughed so hard.
Hahaha, glad I could make you smile. Oh, and by the way, you've inspired me to go buy my first kit! Thanks!
@@KevinBourqueMtl Awesome I hope it goes well for you. I really do like these kits.
Thanks for sharing your first experience

Thank you for sharing, great video I like the step by step process.
Thanks for taking the time to watching it. Pierre
Somehow I missed the video :( So you got now your own camera crew! Great! Cheers Pierre!
It's good to hear from you Oliver. No camera crew just a friend that wanted to help out. It was fin to do. Thanks for taking a look. Pierre
Just take specific gravity in the bucket. If you find it easier to use test vessel sanitize it first then dump back in bucket.
You know it's funny you should say that, I did just that for the first time this week. thanks for the advice. Pierre
Niceone mate. That wine should turn out great. Cheerş
Thanks I had fun doing it.

@@SimpleHomeBrew Sorry I was not aware that you had sanitised off camera. Please accept my apologies
@@dazza9360 Haha, Your awesome mate. I didn't think to mention it. I will be more transparent in the future. Keep brewing. Pierre
Didn’t sanitize your hand though
lmao the closed captions at 15:04
Oh My God, do you think I should fix that?😁😁
Just put the hydrometer meter into the pail and take the reading like that
Thanks for the advice, I will consider doing that in the future. Thanks you for taking the time to guide me in the right direction. I love this kind of feedback.
bentonite is positively charged clay mud!
Benzonite clay powder for binding floating particles together

How much are the wine kits.
I believe they range from $70 - $100. Depending where it is purchased from.
Bentonite is a type of clay also used for an ingredient of making sand molds for casting metal in a foundry
Thanks for the information Much appreciated. 😀
Sanitation is good but after handling his hair he puts his hands in the fermenter
?
bottle it and wait 2 years its worth the wait.
Watched a couple of your videos and I think you need to cut your hair so you don't keep runbing your hands through it all the time
Thanks for the advice I appreciate it.
@@SimpleHomeBrew i do like your videos BTW. What part of Australia r u at?
@@stewartmanders2291Thanks Stewart, I reside in Gippsland Victoria Traralgon to be precise
The positive charge attracts lees

Hi I believe they still do the 10 litre kits as i am working on one right now. I think they have a high range of kits that suit different tastes.

Looks like you just moved in or you spent all your money on that wine kit 😅
Thanks, I think?

Do you have any good suggestions?
I hope the sanitizer tastes good

San sanitizers are made to stay in and on the equipment. Read a book before u come to be critical!
