Hi. Though I've been brewing wine's since July - I'm still new at this. I'm now the proud owner of my 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th bottling in the last 40 days. (Man, the racks fill up quickly) And some were kits, which have clear instructions on time between racking(s) and then aging after the bottling. I have been so busy at the brewing, that I didn't realize how long I'd have to wait.
Especially the recipes for the fruit wines - I am getting from Jack's site or others - are probably clear, but I'd like your advice. For instance, I started a MANGO wine (1st recipe)
Just to be clear (hate to wait longer than I have to), that is 10 days, plus 30 days, plus 6 months plus 12 months. That's 19 months & 10 days. right? The "age for a year" doesn't include the 6 months of racking time... If it means age for 12 months including the 6 months in the secondary, I can drink 177 days earlier. :*) Not that I'm anxious, but am probably just confusing myself here.
Willing to be patient, but don't want to... DAve
