Australian Blend Merlot 7 Day Wine Kit

Australian Blend Merlot 7 Day Wine Kit

The Merlot wine-making kit will produce a full-bodied red with well-balanced tannins, a bit softer than the Cabernet Sauvignon. The Merlot produced has the typical hint of plums and is medium dry. It is a perfect choice to go with most meat dishes.

The box contains all the ingredients you need; add water to make 23 litres of delicious New World-style Merlot red wine.

WHAT'S GOOD TO HAVE
It is imperative to clean and sterilize all equipment correctly. Use a suitable homebrew cleaner/sterilizer for the best result. When racking off, an extra 33-litre fermenter (bucket) is good. A hydrometer is the main instrument you need for all measurements - find out when fermentation is over, calculate alcohol, adjust sweetness, etc. The hydrometer is also very good if you make your beer. Use good wine corks for your bottles, or if you wish - use swing-top bottles. When corking, a twin lever corker is best. That will save you a lot of hard work and minimize the risk of damaging the corks.
