What is in a Bolero bucket?
I picked up a stray bucket of Bolero yesterday (White Merlot). The
owner didn't know what to do with it, and offered a price I couldn't resist. What I *don't* know is what is actually in the bucket--is this a bucket of juice, or is the liquid bagged with packets of yeast and what-not inside as well? (It refers to what is "included," but I don't know if this is separate or inside). I'd open it, but if it's just juice . . . hawk

What is in a Bolero bucket?
Its is a sterile must. 23 lts in a bag. Just follow directions and it
should turn out fine. It would be the same as any other "kit" wine. Only in this case you do not add any water. -- "Dr. Richard E. Hawkins" wrote in message k.net...

OK, but is there anything else inside? It refers to the yeast, clay, etc., but I don't know if those are inside the bucket, or are "lost pieces" that were external. thanks hawk

I'm not sure what you are asking.
Bolero is an RJ Spagnols kit. There should be a large bag of must. here should also be bentonite, K-meta, sorbate, and clearing agent(s). There may be oak depending on the variety.

That was the question  I have the sealed bucket, but I didn't know if it would be must in a bag and a bag of other stuff, or if the other stuff would have been external. Thans hawk

The catch, of course, would be if it was just must, leaving me sitting there with open must and no yeast . . . hawk

This is a standard kit that just happens to be 23 litres. The
so-called 'sterile must' is in a BAG in the pail. The additives described previously will be in the pail with the bag. OK???
