Good Day everyone, first time posting here.
I'm interested in starting to make my own wine prob around 50 gallons to start with. We use to make wine almost every year until my grandfather passed a few years ago and I would like to continue this tradition.
I have a small shed located in the back of my bungalow that I would like to convert into a small wine cellar to store/rack the demijohns which will be holding the wine. I've attached pictures and any input would be GREATLY appreciated. while the room is small is should house a few demijohns without any problems. I plan on insulating the room and roof with most likely R-30 insulation. I live approx 2 blocks from the beach and there is always a slight breeze as well as cooler temp. I am more worried about trapping heat than keeping in cool air as the 1 wall which is attached to the house has my boiler on the other side. That wall is insulated however I will place more inside the shed just to be safe.
Any and all info and opinions are GREATLY Appreciated!!
