Hi everyone

[Stumpman]

HI! Seems like a pretty nice forum. Much nicer than some of the other ones I've been on. My Name is Paul, I Live in Ohio. I've been making wine for about a year and a half now, and its becoming quite an obsession. I've got a bunch of stuff cooking right now, and have ran into a few problems, but I've also had some stuff turn out very very good. I look forward to swapping info with everyone, and glad to be here!

Stumpman WELCOME ,
Tell us what kind of wine you make (kit, grape, fruit) and whats on radar.

 

[Russ Stewart]

Welcome to the forum, Paul. I also am from Ohio - about midway in between Dayton and Lima. Good luck with all of your future wine-making endeavors!

My wines are below. I press some, mostly buy juice from NY already pressed, and I've done a few concentrates before, but I never like the outcome.

Where do you get your juices, Walkers'?

 

[smurfe]

Welcome aboard. Glad to have you here. Post up your problems. I am sure we can help you out.

Yes, you know of any others? I've always figured there would be more than one place

 

[Wade E]

Not really for getting fruit juices but many wineries would probably sell you must but would most likely have to be pre ordered. Ive only ever heard of good things about Walkers' though.

Your pix look great!
You really jumped in with both feet into the "obsession"!

It started small with 15 gallons, I found a deal on craigslist for more carboys, so I thought no sense in letting them sit around empty. I definitely still learning how to make a good wine, but I like the challenge. Ultimately I'd like to open a winery and stop grinding out tree stumps.

I think thats everyone's dream but hope you can make it happen. Great pics!
