    Synergy label

    I thought it would be a good idea to actually have a label done before I bottle today. Better late than never!

    Mosti Mondiale I need your help!

    What were the MM frozen juice pails called? Were they just AllJuice or did they have another name because they were frozen?? I can't remember!

    Mosti Mondiale Oh yeah!!!!

    I just got a 2 box shipment of peanuts from George!! How did you know I was getting low, George? They arrived a day early too! Not only did he send me a fresh supply of peanuts, he threw in a bag of Barolo and another of Chardonnay. They are "limited edition"...whatever that means. What should I...

    Flying with wine

    My daughter has asked me to bring a bottle of wine with me when I visit her in London next month. Is that do-able? I'd like to carry it on but I doubt that will work. Any thoughts?

    A new one

    I wanted to pay homage to my dog, Bear...she's part Lab and part German Shorthair Pointer.

    Spray bottles

    I have 2 spray bottles full of S-meta I use them when I forget to sanitize something. Neither of them work now. I thought maybe the tubing and the works in the sprayer might be clogged with salt deposits so I tried soaking one of them in hot water. It made no difference. Anyone have experience...

    What are your thoughts...

    ...about combining two 3 gallon kits (chocolate raspberry port) into one 6 gallon batch. Do you use both kits' additives? Or do you use just one set? I don't mean the flavor packs but the yeast, sorbate, oak, bentonite, and k-meta.

    Here's a dumb question

    What color should strawberry wine be? I'm afraid mine might have oxidized or should it be kind of orange?

    Aging

    When a kit says to age wine 6 months and that it peaks at 1-2 years, are they talking bottle aging or bulk aging??

    I've had the best time!!!

    I've been watching a pair of Downy woodpeckers for the last month or so. They come to the feeder, snag some sunflower seeds and will often fly up into the tree and "bury" the seeds in what's left of a broken branch. They hammer them in, make sure they're in place, and just drop about 15 feet...

    This is worrisome!

    A big ol' box addressed to me was delivered to the main office at work at 12:40 today. I checked after my lunch and saw it was there. As usual I left it there and went back to work. At the end of my day I went to the office to pick it my treasure. The box was gone! The other delivered boxes...

    For those who use Photoshop

    Here's something I learned this weekend while fooling around. I thought this technique could make some interesting backgrounds for wine labels...hmm I'm thinking it could be used for text too! Open up a photo or picture you like. In the upper right of the Tools Palette there is the...

    Ok...this just broke my heart!

    I got the judges' notes from the wine I entered at the fair. The comments about the chocolate raspberry port are the ones!!! One says, "Nice long finish. " That's fine. The other one? "Perfect score! I feel bad pouring out the rest of my glass!" He poured out my double gold! How could he...
