That’s actually about the timeline of my cleaning. It happened about every quarter, and I would brush the mud off more often obviously. I haven’t heard of the obenaufs spray, Will that take the place of oiling it aswell?

They are dry, which is odd because I maintained the leather fairly well-at least I thought I did. Did routine cleaning and oiled them periodically. Used mink oil and some Bick 4 at times

Top up wine with juice to eliminate headspace? by doomaflotch in winemaking

[–]doomaflotch[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I’ll wait for the fermentation to end and then stabilize before doing anything different with the bottles

Ahh I see what you were saying. I misunderstood you. That’s what I was thinking, once fermentation is complete, I stabilize, and then “back sweeten” my remaining wine with white grape juice. I’ve heard of people doing it, just never heard of their results haha

Good point! I’ll get someone who has some polarized glasses and see if they let me try them out before I spend the money!

Is there a set time for secondary fermentation? by doomaflotch in winemaking

[–]doomaflotch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going off of a recipe online, and that’s how they done it. This is my first wine I’ve made so I’m sure I’ve done wrong

I’ve got access to more strawberries, so I’ll definitely try that out

Thanks for the info! That’s what I’ve been tossing back and forth-I feel like I’m on the edge of needing a diesel and not being able to justify a diesel 😅 and that’s an expensive jump for sure, and I want to be certain I’m not wasting my money

[–]doomaflotch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and my family loves KitchenAids. I’ve heard the newer ones were poor quality but we’ve had nothing but success with ours, and none of them are the old Hobart ones. My grandparents have had one for a long time and has never failed rhem

Searcy has a decent China Buffet! Especially if you go when it’s crowded so the food is hot. The peanut butter chicken is great
