I picked up a Youngs wine kit, a 7 day 30 bottle merlot.
Was among a box of bits a got from a boot sale, i only wanted the demijohns but was all bundled together lol
It's 3 years out of date, but figured there was nothing to loose giving it a go. Left the yeast pack out and used Lalvin RC212 and some nutrient.
Other than that i have just followed the instructions.
Currently fermenting away nicely
After reading some reviews of it, I've come to realise it isn't the best wine kit on the market....
I'm wondering if anyone has any tip for how it can be improved?
Was thinking maybe the second concentrate pack could be swapped for a grape concentrate?
From what i have read the supplied one can give a strong chemical/glycerin taste...
Or maybe it would benefit from both?
