| Recommended Home wine Making Supplies |
The following is a list of supplies
you will need for wine making:
BOTTLES:
Glass bottles are the most common containers for
storing wine. Glass is ideal because it does not
affect the wine in any way, even during extended
periods. A bottle is a bottle is a bottle..... right?
Sounds simple enough, but the wrong wine bottles
may not work with your corker! Typically, the wine
bottles with the popular flared tip are not compatible
with many of the hand-held corkers. That's why finevinewines.com
is careful to stock only the bottles that will work
with all of the corkers we offer. You'll need 27-32
standard 750ml bottles per wine kit, depending on
the effectiveness of your racking and the number
of samples drawn.
CORKS:
Corks are produced from the bark of cork trees, which
are grown mainly in Spain and Portugal. Corks are
airtight and have for years been the best way to
seal wine bottles.
Corks
B-BRITE,
C-BRITE, Easy Clean or One-Step : These compounds
are used to clean and sanitize winemaking equipment.
B-Brite cleans with active oxygen, and does not
contain chlorine or bisulfite. C-Brite is similar,
but it is chlorine based. It is the same ingredient
used in most hospitals for sanitizing.
LABELS: Besides
making your bottles look pretty, how else are you
going to know what it in each bottle?
CLOSURES:
A closure is an item that fits over the top of the
bottle to help seal the bottle.
WATER: If your water is high in sodium, chlorine
or other chemicals, use spring water purchased from
the store.
PAPER TOWELS: You will spill! Need I say more? |
