Great video, sound advice. I appreciate that you get straight to the topic without exhaustive preliminary discussion. No intro, no music, no inane attempts at comedy - just a concise delivery. Best format to present the information without wasting viewer’s time. Subscribed, thanks.

@@QualityHomeWinemakingI wanted you to know I also appreciate that you just get to the point. I get really frustrated with those who have a 10 min video and the first 8 minutes are just babbling. Great job, great video. I didn’t understand all the terms you have used… I’m that new to wine making… but, it let me know I need to begin with terminology so I can get the most out of videos like this. Thx for sharing your experience!

Dont know if its been said before, But if your bentonite clay is not clearing the brew, then you can try a fining agent with the opposite charge. Bentonite is Negatively charged, and will only attract/clear positive charged particles. Try Sparkaloid or similarly Positive charged fining agent, it can clear out the negatively charged particles.

Good solid advice here. I don’t think I have any critiques for you at all honestly. I will say that I think I have a……..different way of cleaning any stubborn kreusen from the inside of narrow neck bottles/jugs. I had a REALLY long brush similar to the one you use in the video but it never really got everything. So I employ a somewhat abnormal tool/technique. My driveway is a gravel drive and one day when I was getting frustrated with the inside of a jug not getting clean enough a decided I needed something a bit more abrasive. So I grabbed about 2 cups of my gravel and washed it really REALLY well and put it inside the jug with some warm soapy water and maneuvered the jug all around (not shaking but more of a rocking motion) and everything came clean within a couple minutes. I keep those 2 cups of gravel and wash them before and after I use them for this purpose. It does an amazingly good job. After that just sanitize the jug like you normally would.

Making mead has helped me with with learning patience. I went overboard when making the first batch and forced myself to stay cold at fifty degrees and set up a surgical clean area to make my mead. Now I know that if you just clean the area and keep yourself clean when making things you don't have to worry about something going wrong. Keeping the area clean and just making sure you don't go to warm or cold it will all be fine.

I'm figuring this out slowly, this is not a hobby for the impatient and clean is key for sure. I continue to get better at both and it's showing up in the finished product. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. I've thought about the controlled temperature thing, but I'm not there yet...

@@QualityHomeWinemaking That should work, I've never tried it. Bentonite works best if it is rehydrated with warm water. So, you may have to warm up a small amount of your wine.

About 90% of every fault I've encountered in 2 years of homebrewing went away with time. Hell I once used 10 cloves in a mead, not realizing how potent one clove was . . . it became drinkable a year later, even enjoyed it.

@@QualityHomeWinemaking just boil your pieces and later hit them with isopropyl alcohol with at least 70%, put your alcohol in a spray or mister and that will do the trick, if you have waaay larger pieces, 20liter jars, mix water with a teaspoon of sodium metabisulfate and agitate or rub in your container, the sodium sulfute mix with h20 will create sulfur dioxide which kills any microorganism except for viruses which sanitization doesnt do

sanitization does NOT remove 100% of microorganism count nor does it provide an sterile enviroment for consequent use of the vessel or tool, sterilization DOES remove 100% of microorganism, germs/spores/bacteria, however it does not remove certain viruses, You can remove viruses with UV-C light and chlorine dioxide, the first one is a way easier route btw@@QualityHomeWinemaking
