The Wine Fact Center

Scott Young has written in simple lesson by lesson format just how to make a great batch of homemade wine easily.  If you follow each lesson carefully in his guide, Delicious Wine Making Made Easy, you will most certainly be successful.

Scott Young positively knows what he is talking about and that is evident after analyzing the first section of this informative guide.   Delicious Wine Making Made Easy is arranged into 15 lessons that are amazingly well written and composed.  

Chapter one contains your first three lessons. In lesson one you are given detailed information for gathering and purchasing just the right equipment to guarantee a great batch of wine.  In lesson two Scott fills you in on some “common sense” tips such as:

•    Finding the best place to make and store your wine.
•    Having all of your supplies together.
•    Giving yourself enough time.
•    Having a bucket of sanitizer ready as you need to place items into it.
•    Having a chair or a stool handy.
•    Having a stool, counter or table to set items on.
•    The importance of strictly following instructions.
•    Clean up your mess.
•    The two ultimate determining success factors for your wine. 

Scott reviews several types of wine making products in lesson three, given you his recommendation and suggestions.

Each lesson builds on the previous one, it is imperative not to skip any.  The final chapter holds lessons 11-15 which provide suggestions on how to improve or upgrade your recipes and methods.

The appendix contains thoughts and ideas for hosting a wine tasting.  You are given tips for evaluating and ranking wines.

Scott Young’s book “Delicious Wine Making Made Easy” is something any potential fruit winemaker needs to have in their library. Scott can now add to his title of “winemaker,” the title of “author” and “teacher.”

There are a couple of other great wine making books currently available that I would like to also mention the Ultimate Fruit Wine Maker’s Guide and Making Exceptional Wine are two that are recommended reading as wine making reference manuals.
