What do I do if my wine does not clear after 7 days after adding the clarifies?

Have you fully degassed the wine? If the wine isn't degassed, it will not clear. Give it a little stir, if you have bubbles stir until the bubbles stop, wait a week, also try warming to 75 or cooling to 40 sometimes it just takes a temperature change.

you can order a clarifying agent which causes the to become crystal clear. Best to use in the 6 gal. carboy.

You could let it sit another week. Or buy a product called super clear! Works like a charm! Good luck these kids are easy fun and taste great!

Wait p to another week. If it still oesn't clear. report it to mazon and they will probabluy replace the kit

My husband is the wine maker at our house and he says wait a while longer. Also he says the you must be mindful of the temperature that you are keeping the wine at. Hope this is helpful.

I stored the 2 that I bought in my garage after they were delivered. My garage had an awesome wine aroma for about a week then it dissipated.

Actually people may find this hard to believe but if you follow directions exactly as i have , i have regularly had wine last for weeks...even a month, with this product and leaving the wine then either on the counter or inside the refrigerator if it's pretty hot in summer and the wine is always really really good. I wonder if it depends on the quality of the wine and the kind of wine. I mostly drink only oak barrelled red wine...Ruah, Cabernet, and Merlot usually and don't get anything less than a $20 bottle and usually better quality than that. I also don't drink much out of a bottle once open it, maybe one or two glasses and then sometimes not for weeks again , and i can tell you for over 4 years using this, never has a bottle of wine gone bad and always it tastes great (even guests say that and can't believe it)......sometimes better, smoother...but as i said i get good wine to start with. i have had one can last 3 to 4 years , sometimes share it and finish the bottle and a few nights later open another and have a glass or two only , other times with guests empty the bottle of course...sometimes drink only one glass out of same bottle a few times or more and preserve it for over a months' time before it's finished....and still great tasting wine and well preserved... So that is my experience. And i heard from others that a couple of weeks is pretty normal with this product but maybe more than that you might not be able to count on, but i always have and have never been disappointed. Hope that helps.

I am not sure why that is happening. I have never had that happen! Is it possibly expired? I have use d it for sometime now and I do pout it thinly as it doe not take much.

In general you don't want wine to sit - red past 2 days, white past 4. Top top works ok. It's not a vacuum seal or anything, but its easier than reinserting a cork. I've only used it for wine bottles...fitted for that size bottle neck/opening.

Callie, I have made this wine several times and the strawberry is especially sweet. You can ease off on how much you add. You can let it go longer during your secondary ferment and keep an eye on your SG level. The lower the SG, the dryer your wine will be. If you let it go to around .996 before stabilizing, it will still have the flavor without it being as sweet. I would add only half, or less, of the strawberry pack. Good luck!

I don't think I would trust the seal enough in my opinion. They work really well but only keep the wine good for a few days. Basically so you can have a glass with dinner each night or something. After about 4 or 5 days I noticed the wine doesn't taste that good anymore. Works great on non - cork bottles too if the mouth of the bottle is the same as a corked bottle.

I think your wine won't have enough time to get oakey taste if you fill it up right before serving. T

Yes, you have a problem. There should have been a blivot inside the bucket that held the juice. You should also have bags containing instructions, yeast, stabilizer, fining agent and clearing agent. It usually also comes with 30 corks, 30 foil tops and 30 labels.Call Amazon and complain, they will usually send you another one free.

I have kept a bottle of wine for a couple of weeks after using the Vacu Vin. Upon opening the wine afterward, it was still perfectly fine. I don't usually wait that long to finish a bottle of wine, but I was pleasantly surprised that the wine was just as it was when I sealed it in the first place.

HI Santoyo ! The person who responded first, already said basically what I was about to recommend ! Even suggesting the video ! No point in repeating !! The only thing I can imagine that might lead you to damage the bottle and not just the cork, as the cork issue happens to me, is that the cork is of a very hard type and is very stuck in there, as it HAS happened to me, but not to the point of damage !! ........... CHERERS my friend and mull this over a nice Cab !!

There's 2 units in the wine cooler, and it sounds like one has stopped working. Make sure you have adequate ventilation for both sides. Each side generates lots of heat, and they need plenty of ventilation to work properly.

How many days? Wine does not sit around this house days. I have only had it sit for one day, maybe two and it taste like I just opened it. Oh actually, it tastes better because it has had time to breath. To me a wine that sits opened for a day or two tastes more acid and many of the finer notes of flavor are gone. I hope I answered your question.

Depends on room temperature. For me with room around 76 it took about 1 hour to get wine to 66

I don't know. I finished both my containers and disposed of them. If you already have bought it and cannot find the info on the container, then just go by how fresh it is. I had no problem with freshness.

Just got a new bottle and it is not clear and smells like alcohol (my last bottle was brown and smelled like coffee), has anyone else had this experience?

I had a similar problem- mine was because I put the bottle with the balloon inflated in the refrigerator. I had to detach the balloon from the pump and wait until the wine warmed up.
