    Label I made last night for my first ever batch of wine, after finally deciding on a 'name' for our wine! Reeko Bay...after our dog Reeko (pictured) and our love for the Bay!

    I'm starting to get worried...

    I was hoping there was a 'slow down', too! Already bought a second bucket and carboy last week to get the second batch going.....I started my first batch not even a month ago!! Is it bad I'm looking forward to getting home from vacation (that hasn't even started yet) to start another batch???

    What R you doing today?

    Thanks so much. I may see if I can find some glass marbles. This is my first batch so I don't have any I've already made...and don't want to add wine (that's not mine) to it...just doesn't seem like it'd be the same!

    First go at Welch's Concord Wine

    Hi all! Well, first batch isn't even done clearing yet and my husband and I came home with a new primary fermenter, carboy, and all the ingredients to make up some Welch's Concord Wine..Concord is his favorite so after reading about it on here I figured we should give it a shot. Got the bug...

    Hi from Ohio!

    From the Port Clinton area, Rocky! I can see getting very addicted. Going to the home brew store tomorrow and afraid I may come home with another kit so I can start my next batch :h

    Hi from Ohio!

    My husband & I just started our first batch of wine on the 9th of December (early Christmas gift!). I stumbled upon this site when googling some questions and wanted to join and say hello! We're starting out with a few purchased juice kits to get the hang of the process, but I'm eager to...
