Compete noob checking in from NC

[super_n00b]

Hello everyone,

After lurking for a bit I decided to to go ahead and sign up. I acquired some stuff from my uncle since he use to make is own wine.

Before that I stopped by Advantage Beer and Wine in Hickory/Longview area in NC, and the fella that runs the place Mike, he really sparked my interest. Plus with the current crazyness going on with the current market of guns and ammo I'm picking up a different hobby.

So I got a 5 gallon primary fermenting buck, a 1 gallon glass bottle, airlock, hydrometer, and syphin tube.

I'm looking at starting off just doing small (1 gallon) batches to get the feel for everything since I'm currently on a strict budget. Them later on jumping up to larger batches.

Also going to start of with juice concentrates (unless its a bad idea) them eventually do from completely stratch stuff.

But tomorrow I'm probably taking all the stuff I have and meeting up with Mike at advantage beer and wine and finish getting the stuff I need to get the ball a rollin.
