Hi Harry, how are things in Texas. My Blackberry don't smell sour, smells like Blackberries, but I'm not a expert vino maker so what do I know lol. Tomy

Planted some watermelons in the front yard where there was no grass. This really pisses off the lawn of the month club folks lol. They are the small Sugar Babys, and hopefully will make good wine this fall. Any sugestions on the best yeast to use?

I pray these treatments work for you Swill, and you will be out in your vinyard, garden real soon. Tomy

As I understand it China has already developed a Super Rice II YOU 28 which has increased production with a record breaking 18,449.55 kilograms per hectare.

I guess 30-40 cases of two buck Chuck isn't that much really. Tomy

Wow thats a 1/2 gallon every 2 years, quite a bit I'm thinking, plus the natural loss to the angels share amounts to quite a loss of wine in a year if a winery is producing hunderds of gallons. Tomy

Hi Jeff, I know it wasn't something like I would do and forget to check the circuit breaker, so.... take it back & tell them its junk. Some people use a heating mat used for fish tanks, it goes under the tank and will do a good job on your ferminter. Good luck
