Flashgum
Something that should be in every winemaker’s toolkit. We winemakers like to think of this as “pixie dust”. When used in wine it helps smooth out a wine’s mouthfeel and eliminate those harsh attributes that can come from a tough fermentation or if your wine is young. Only $7.99 for a 6 gallon batch this is a great go-to for winemakers.
