Iron Lotus II

The Iron Lotus II is underway. After slicing, scooping, and juicing a ton of Kiwi and a little bit of pineapple the must is well on its way to becoming WINE. I used an electric juicer to juice the fruit, I figured my feet wouldn't work as well, and I was right. I am a big fan of the juicer and I believe it will become one of my most value tools.

While The Original Iron Lotus was mighty tasty, I felt like the pineapple over power the kiwi so I adjusted the recipe an I hope that fixes the problem.

Rescue Raspberry update:

The must is in the final clearing stage and will be racked and back sweetened June 1. Then its back to the carboy for a few weeks to ensure fermentation has fully stopped then its into bottles.
