I am now three months into my wine making expedition and have come to one major conclusion. You guys are completely out of your minds. Wait a minute, wait a minute. I mean that in agood way. You will make wine out of just about anything.......seriously. Fruit cocktail, kool aid, hell you'll even...

Yeah, I agree, if that tastes half as good as it looks you got a serious winner there scuba. Nice job

That mityvac that Wade always suggests, does a more than adequate job. But then again, anyone that disagrees with Waldo should be banned from the forum, so I'm sure his method is fine also.Edited by: myway22

The first batch I made was the Renaissance Chianti and its only about two months old, but it came pretty darn good. The main red that I drank before I started making wine was Chianti, and I feel the Renaissance is extremely good already.

Good luck scuba, I definitely know what thats about

I did it on the first batch I made, it wasa Chianti with raisins, and it actually floated to the top of the must with the raisins. I asked the same question and was given many assurances that it was no big deal.

See what you did JW, your bottles looked so tempting, that I was FORCED to order the Meglioli Amarone last night. Darn forum.

Welcome Jay, I live in Staten Island, but work in Brooklyn and grew up there. Where exactly are you from?

Good news/bad news The bad news is that even though I wanted to bulk age, I caved in and bottled my MM Chianti and MM Pinot Grigio. (photos to come) The good news is that even though I gave in, I haven't opened any yet.

A shredder big enough to fit an entire mobile home, yeah, cause theres such a high demand for one of those.

That is a great story Tomy. Where I'm from if you give the mailman money, you may never see him again.

Normally I would say that you are the only one to pick up on that, but not on this forum. That is too funny.

You can order the temp strips from George.

After all the waiting, I started the port on Monday. Its still in the primary.

Jobe, I'll be in on the next one as well. First, I have nothing bottled yet that is aged, and second, since I'm new to this I wanna see how they turn out first.

6 Gallons MM Chianti bulk aging 6 Gallons MM Pinot Grigio bulk aging 6 Gallons Black Raspberry Merlot ready to bottle and last but not least, 3 Gallons of the Chocolate Raspberry Port in the primary.

Gee, I hope not. When I topped up my Chianti, I had to add almost 2 bottles.

I never shipped wine, but have shipped other seriously fragile items, and a substantial amount of bubble wrap usually works really well.

Maybe, just maybe, appleman is the seller!

I told you, the guy is a little mysterious, but at least he came through. Enjoy!
