Q: Will I need two 3-gallon fermenters?

Asked by: Geoff Lewis - 11/5/2020

A: This recipe does require a primary and secondary fermentation. A larger primary bucket or carboy and smaller 3 gallon carboy to use for the secondary would be the best bet

Q: from 2014 through 2016 I made 6 batches of WinExpert Select Special Chocolate Raspberry Dessert Wine (we like it a lot). Is it still available? How does this compare?

Asked by: Martin Ferman - 7/14/2019

A: The raspberry dessert wine is a limited release kit from that manufacturer that is not available at this time(july 2019) the Dessert wine kit would be a similar kit without the addition of the chocolate and raspberry flavoring added

Q: What is the finished alcohol level? Do we need to add neutral spirits to achieve a port-level percentage?

Asked by: Howard Battan - 8/29/2016

A: This dessert wine should be in the 15-17% ABV range. A port wine can certainly be fortified with a spirit to achieve the ABV you are looking for.

Q: Is this kit pretty specific as far as instructions, also, would it liken to a tawny port or what should I expect?

Asked by: rick - 11/23/2013

A: Yes the instructions are specific and easy to follow. This would not be a tawny port, it would not have the oxidation notes etc...you will find in a tawny port. It would be straight dessert port.
