Bottling Dandelion – Batch B
August 7, 2009 9:43 pm Food RelatedOne of our jars of Dandelion wine has finally cleared!
So we bottled that up (5 bottles of wine) and racked the still cloudy batch into a new fermentation jar, and topped that up with the clear wine.
Problem is…. it doesn’t taste too good!
It’s still very sweet, so I’m not sure if it should ferment more? It has a sort of desert wine sweetness but not the same thickness as that. I guess if it stays sweet then we can make deserts with it…. it is supposed to get better with age, and not be drunk until December so it still has a chance!
Lets just hope the ones I’ve bottled don’t ferment any more!
Initially it looked a little cloudy in the new bottles but it think that was just some sediment that got stirred up when i was siphoning and that seems to have cleared out now, but the other jar (Batch A) doesn’t appear to be clearing.
