<DIV =postcolor>Well now, my first kit is now officially underway. It is a Vino del Vido Chilean Cabernet Merlot. Initial S.G. was 1.084 at 76 degrees.
I was going to start my other kit but realized that my second primary would be to small. Guess I'll use it to start a 1 gallon batch of Kumquat wine while I try and a local source of a 6 gal food grade bucket. I'll check the local doughnut shop in the morning.
Oh yeah......also bottled 16 750ml bottles of my elderberry wine! Time for that to go into a dark place for 6 months.
Hopefully I'll also be bottling my blackberry wine tomorrow! It too will go into that dark place with the elderberry.
Gonna worry about the Kumquat later tonight....gotta go eat some boiled crawfish.
