Time = A wonderful, beefy Amarone

GaDawg, I have never fortified any of my ports. They came out to be about 19% abv and are delicious with some time on them. But I agree with you, if I was to fortify, I would definitely try the Cointreau. Kathie

Mike, I love your oak barrel!!! Good luck on your port! I have mine in the carboy now. The orange chocolate port. It is a camping staple! :) Kathie

I make the orange chocolate and the chocolate raspberry every year. Great taking out camping with friends!!! Delicious every time!!!!

With all due respect........follow the directions and do not deviate. You will thank yourself in a few months. :)

Wade, I totally agree!! lol

Tony, oo oo.....good to know. :) Kathie

Mike, you have peaked my interest here. Do you make your reds from the bucket juice?? Do you get your juice/skins from George? Kathie

You can try using marbles and place in the carboy. Fills the void nicely. Kathie

Thanks, Robie. I will probably stick with the instructions and make this my "I appreciate you...here is a bottle of chard" wine. :) Kathie

Thanks, Mike. BTW, your dinner sounded delicious and I am assuming you are talking about the CC Yakima Chard? I have made the CC Showcase Chard which turned out pretty darn good. Will have to try the Yakima Chard, for sure. :) Kathie

Dan, started the chard yesterday. :) Kathie

Mike, Have you made the Orchard Breezing CranApple Chard? I picked up a kit and was wondering if you have made it or know of anyone who has? I have heard good reviews. I am not a fan of sweet wines but am going to give this a try. In the ferment bucket today. Kathie

You won't be disappointed. :) Kathie

Josh, grats on that great Cab kit. imo it is the best out there!!! I will keep making the CC Red Mtn Cab. Enjoy.....and Cheers~ Kathie

Tony, I have never snapped my lids on. I do put a washcloth over the hole in the lid to keep fruit flies, gnats, etc out of the wine.

Please heed ibeglowin's advice!!! This IS the best cab kit out there. Just follow the directions and let it age. You will be glad that you did!!!! :) Kathie

Roger, I have made both......the WE with skins (which was off the hook good!) and the MM Rennaisance. To be honest, I love them both and the more age they have on them the more great they are!!! :) KAthie

Dan, I am waiting for my CranApple Chard to get here. (Hopefully today) If so, I will start it this weekend. Will it be tasting pretty good for Christmas giveaways? Or will it taste "green" because of lack of aging? Kathe

Dirtydawg, I am waiting for the cranberry chardonnay to be shipped to me. It is not an Orchard breezing kit. I was wondering if I should use just 1/2 the Fpack on this one?? I want these to be Christmas gifts this year. :)
