cheesegod99,
Lenore is correct, the basic kit will do fine and all the other items are time/labor savers. Heck, I've bottled 12 batches of wine with a plastic $5 hand corker and only had one bottle that the cork would not seat. After realizing I had overfilled it and adjusted the head space, the cork went in fine. I have added more expensive equipment over the months (the corker for 1), but not as a necessity, but a niceity (spelling). My advice is get the basic stuff and then what ever items urk you the mostupgradethese first
