@chino4644 To make a port you need to stop fermentation when the ABV reaches about 5-6%ABV then you add Brandy or Cognac to bring the ABV to 19 or 20% then add sugar syrup to sweeten. You might also want to bulk age if for a year with french oak cubes. This is how Port is made traditionally. Only thing is when they fortifie it they use Neutral grape spirits or basicly 98% alcohol made from grapes. Since thats almost impossible to get use brandy which is distilled wine

@gunmadkiller First of all get a hyrometer. They are $6 and they are a must have if you want to do things right. Also its hard to get wine to 20% as most wine yeast will die out at around 14%. Thier are acouple though that can get to 18% To get thier you need to syrup feed your wine.(read up on that) To get to 20% you need a total of 35 cups of sugar or 15and 1/2 Lb of sugar(2.25 cups of sugar=Aprox 1lb) added in stages. Unless your making a dessert wine 20% ABV will taste like shit.

When I make wine I never Monitor the Temp. Just make sure your in the low to mid 70’s and your fine. Colder then that and you will slow fermentation, but slow fermentation can be a good thing as you will get better tasting wine

Midwest Supplies is a great place to buy kits. Sorry to plug them on your post Craig. The are a great site though. I started making beer after I watched your videos. Im thinking about wine but, I dont wanna buy more equipment 🙁 The directions I read say use a 7.5 – 8 gallon primary. Is that true?

Where did you purchase the juice? I’ve found many sites that sell juice, but you’re obviously well seasoned… so i would trust your opinion. thanks
