everytime i make wine, i get a bad yeasty flavor. how do i get rid of this completely, if not how do i reduce it? id prefer not to use chemicals like bentonite or whatever but if that is necessary.

you should not get a yeasty flavour.

I suggest you let the wine sit for longer. wine can take months to fully ferment and then clear.

as the yeast uses up all the sugar they die and drop to the bottom. leaving the wine clear.

maybe try to make it with less sugar and give the yeast a change to use all the sugar then die from lack of food.

i let it sit for a while, like at least 2 weeks after it was pretty clear. im using bakers yeast. it shouldnt make much of a difference because they are both of the Saccheromides genus strand. (wine and bakers yeast). any other ideas to get rid of the flavor? Thanks for your time man, ur video is off the heezy lol

[wykedtube]

first I would try wine makers yeast.

make sure the wine is 100% clear.

I have never had a yeast taste in the wine, but all my wines are made from wine yeast and were all really clear.

try getting some clearing agent, maybe turbo clear and see what happens.

thanks for the support, "campben tablets" it is the same thing of "Fleischmann" or "Royale" ? i dont know campben tablets, never saw one... it's the same thing of baking powder? ferment?

thank you again and sorry about taking so much of your attention...

[wykedtube]

Campden tablets (potassium or sodium metabisulfite)

basically kill wild yeast, never heard of "Fleischmann" or "Royale" but if they are potassium or sodium metabisulfite should be fine.

I don't know way everyone says that bakers yeast will only make 8% alcohol, when in fact it can produce upwards of 14%, just do some reach, and you will find that wine yeast and bakers yeast are the same fungus. Some wine yeast has been conditioned to handle higher alcohol content, somewhere around 20%. Bakers yeast will do just fine, and you don't have to go to a specialty shop.

Can't understand you!! What are you saying the white pills are?

[wickedtom1]

@coronapeacock yeast will die on its own, there good 2 use but u dont need cam tabs.once all suger is coverted yeast dies it has no more food plus high alchol content will kill it 2. as long as u siphon it out and leave dead yeast cells behind u'll be fine i make wine and apple brew all the time and never used em before besides old brew recipes dont call for bc they didnt exsist. use em if u got em but its not manitory

@wykedtube "maybe try to make it with less sugar and give the yeast a change to use all the sugar then die from lack of food."??????????????????????

Don't just make things up man!! yeast goes dormant but does not die from lack of food. dry yeast is dormant, not dead, there is no food in there right?????????????????????????­???

[marcjtdc]

[Bulmer39]

@Bulmer39 plastic tube* lol

[Bulmer39]

Just buy a big bottle of grape juice from a local store and toss in a pinch of yeast, put a balloon on top and let it sit for a month in your basement closet. Siphon it once a week with a plastic stupid, which you buy at a hardware store and release the gas daily from the balloon. I've done this many times and got drunk.

@kairama15 are you using brewers wine yeast? or bakers yeast? I used bakers yeast and i got that yeasty flavor. Gonna head to my local brewery sometime soon to get the right stuff
