Q: Newbie - Got our kit. Can you tell us what supplies we need to buy to start the process. IE: syphons, plugs, fermenter's. We got the 5 Gallon kit

A: You will need the items we have in our home winery https://www.williamsbrewing.com/Williams-Home-Winery-C33.aspx You can use plastic T-corks https://www.williamsbrewing.com/Plastic-T-Corks-Bag-Of-25-P3101.aspx instead of regular corks and save some money not having to buy a corker or real corks.

Q: Is treated city water OK to use, or must you use untreated water in the wine making kits?

A: A good rule of thumb is if the water tastes good, use it. If the treated city water does not taste as good as bottled water, use bottled water (do not use distilled water).

A: Our wine concentrates are 100% grape juice and do not have any added sugar, nor is any needed prior to fermentation.

Q: Does the juice concentrate have Potassium Metabisulphite as an additive. I usually see that added earlier in the process, just wondering why you recommend adding to the wine instead of earlier. I ordered the wine kit & about to begin. Thanks

A: Yes, sulfites are added to the concentrate and are present in the kits when they are packaged. Our kits also sulphite (camden) tablets which are added at bottling as an anti-oxident.
