  2. yeah Iam following instructions from a homemakers wine book. I have discovered that any water that I may add should be boiled first, I was using store bought distilled water.

  3. Are you giving your yeast nutrients? If you mean your fermentation is burning out in 3 days..could be stuck as well as a list of other things. Temprature is important…but all wine tastes like crap for several weeks to months.

  4. There are a couple people making decent rieslings. Most growers are growing varietys that should not be grown in colorado, ie, pinot noir. Cold winter temps, uneven rippening, short, unpredictable fall temps ect. Again, there are some great rieslings with great acidity, but tend to be overpriced when compared to the competition in oregon and washington.

  10. If it were up to me, I’d put more science than art into my wine.
    But hey, what the hell do I know compared to that dude?

  11. Educational, I like it. I work at a winery as well. But were less hands on. Cool to see a different winery in action though 🙂

  15. PART 2: So I’m using grape juice, regular bakers yeast (I know, I know. . .) and I also have mesquite wood chips. I know mesquite isn’t what is used in making wine but I like I said I’m using what I have available. This is more of an experiment, the reason I’m doing it with this to start with is I want to know why people use what they use. I want to know good wine from bad wine. With that said I also want a the best product with what I’m using. Please give tips, advise and wisdom. Thank you.

  16. PART 1: Hello, I am a new alcohol brewer and I have a few question and I would like an experts opinion. I have just started my journey of knowing different wines and different tastes I know that the wine efficient autos are very strict with the do’s and don’t’s of making, drinking and storing wine. I understand all of this. What my question is, is I want to make wine out of regular pure grape juice ( I know these aren’t the correct grapes, but I’m starting off with what I have. . .

  20. Really Great Job on this video. I look forward to paying a visit to try some of your wine this year. At what altitude are the source of your grapes grown? Do you add diluted (50ppm) or undiluted sulphite powder pre-fermentation? In the video it appeared to be powder; unless that was an enzyme addition like ColorX. What do you do when faced with a low PH?

  21. This is a really enjoyable video. Love way you show the different grapes, discuss the technical ways that grapes become wine but also how a lot of very interesting behind the scene looks at the work that also goes into wine making. Hope you will make other videos.
