Comment on Tried out a filter the other day...
alzymologist@sopuli.xyz 1 day agoActually I saw guys filtering red wine into white. You need something like sterilization filter (0.04 um) and tangential flow so that it does not clog. We all should start using tff technology, it’s just so awesome.

That’s actually on my list of stuff to try! I want to make a white wine they tastes like a red wine. I was thinking of using activated charcoal but I think that might remove all the flavors, so it might end up being a brandy that’s then watered back down into wine level strength. It’s lower on the list of dumb stuff to try, but definitely there lol

Whoa, then I have a solution for you: get particular strong profile red wine yeast and throw it in white wine must! As easy as that!
I’ve made mead that tastes like red wine, and like white wine (and like mead too). It’s mostly the yeast, color is secondary.

Appreciate the tip! I’ll have to give it a shot, are there any particular red wine yeasts you like?

Try Red Star - Montrachet, it was pretty solid.
