葡萄酒放一段时间后，为什么有点发酸了？

livinginmont

如果是很酸，那就是发酵成醋了。如果是WINE KIT,一般不会。那么，酸就是太dry了。相对个人的口味嫌酸。加些糖浆甜化便好了。我是在我的sauvignon里加了一瓶icewhite.

Could be malolactic fermentation, details @ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malolactic_fermentation.  Good luck!

不可以用食品保鲜膜. Alternatives:
1.  There's a type of wine corks that u can push in with your thumb, without renting or buying a corker.  More expensive, u can find them in the Jean-Talon MM store.

2.  U can buy parts for "reusable seal", may be called easy cap or something.  Look at the expensive beer in supermarket, those with funny top that can be reused.  The Jean-Talon MM sell those bottles, 750ml ~$2-3 each.  

MM may sell the parts also - one metal sheet that go around the neck of regular wine bottle + the funny top with red o-ring. Estimating ~$0.50 per bottle. (The red o-ring are resuable for few years, cost ~$0.10-$0.25)

收集到很多酒瓶. 如果没有瓶塞, 可不可以用食品保鲜膜或其他东西代替?

Can't remember the suggested equation, but it's MORE THAN:
==> 3 x (annual consumption+gift bottles)

Some wine, especially those from fresh grapes/must requires minimum 8-12 months aging.

  . . . .  我现已有百瓶存货，够喝好一阵子了。冬天来了，我得找点别的乐。2009春天再整。呵呵

苹果汁酿酒

过程:

1. 苹果汁中加发酵粉.等1星期
2. 发酵瓶中接着发酵,等20天
3. 3L发酵好的酒中再加入1L苹果汁,灌平
4.待若干日后,喝

注:苹果汁的糖度比较低.比重只有1.04,通常葡萄汁是1.085.所以,酿的酒会比较淡,加入苹果汁是为了改善口感,同时也会产生气泡.

Nice little recipe!  感谢分享！

I may copy it over to a new Cider posting, how u won't mind.

Questions:  
- Where did u get that screw top cap?  (I'm only aware of SAQ Depot selling them.  MM sell some reusable also, but doesn't look the same.)
- I don't think the screw cap will hold for fizzy wine, let us know if it pop, whenever.

For those of u who don't make a lot of wine, u can bottle your wine in:
- beer bottles,
- softdrink bottles.
(- may be water bottles but not for wine that has gas, definitely not for beer)

Please note that wine doesn't age the same without the cork.

可以copy,但请用链接注明出处。

瓶子和瓶盖都是reused. 注意：瓶盖内还有木塞。这样做既不会跑气，木塞也不会被顶出来。

昨天打开一瓶，由于气泡太多，跑掉了半瓶子。

大家都用什么过滤葡萄酒?

我用口罩布过滤, 但感觉效果不是很好? 用咖啡滤纸可以吗?
