no it didnt that was the problem

it tasted like barly wine so people used to drink

I tried brewing wine 2 years back. I still have the demijohns and associated equipment. You can now get what they call "hero yeast", which will survive up to 21% alcohol concentration.

So there's your next challenge, big-all!

PS My home-brew wine tasted rank and one glass gave me a headache for 3 days. On the positive side, the home-brew wine of every other home brewer I tasted was just as disgusting. No matter how much they tried to tell me otherwise. I know a good rioja when I see one and it shouldn't have smoke coming out of it (unless it is a REALLY good vintage!). Other than tax there is a good reason that good wine costs good money, it isn't so simple to make as they will have you believe!

 

[big-all]

yep your right adam
normal yeast dies about 15%

would need about another 2 kilos of sugar

you have the tin of wort containing sugar plus 6 bags of sugar
bl**dy hell shares in tate and lyle would skyrocket

This post made no sense to me when you posted it, but after being out all day and night for the bank holiday, yeah I see what you mean.

Can't contribute sensibly to the electrics forum, so this seems appropriate... Here's to the beer! (Right, should go to bed now)
