My Newest Labels

[Runningwolf]

If all goes right tomorrow will be a big bottling day with about 27 gallons to bottle. Only 8 gallons will go in 750's and the rest will be in 350ml bottles. My least favorate label is for the Pacific White but its a photo taken by my nephew. The cherry labels will also be printed on 2x4 labels for 375 bottles.

Dan, I don't see anything wrong with any of them. They're all great. Nice job. Good luck tomorrow. I hope you have a lot of help.

How are the labels produced? Are they purchased from a printer or done on your own printer? If you design them, what software do you use? I think they look great.
I have been trying to produce a label using Microsoft Publisher. My real issue is that I have an HP Officejet printer and I am concerned that the ink will run if it gets wet. I have read where one can spray a polymer coating over the labels and I have experimented with this. The experiments have not been entirely successful.

Looks really nice there Dan, you just started up my sweet tooth

Rocky, I use all Avery Labels and their software. I have a newer HP office printer (inkjet) that takes a more expensive ink cartridge that has more pigment in it. It has worked very well for me. They talked me out of a laser for this one due to ink cost per page. I also use to also spry my labels with good success.

I also use to also spry my labels with good success.

My printer is the HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless and it uses those larger ink cartridges. Is that what you have?

When I started several years ago I tried different methods of printing labels. I have been most satisified with what I call "The Modified Tepe method."
I create the lables on a Avery template using Microsoft Picture It. When I print, I do a print to file, & save the file on a USB drive. I then take the USB drive and my Avery label stock into Kinkos and have them print on thier laser printer.
I have most impressed with the quality and brightness of the colors. Since I tend to make overly "busy" lablels that would use a lot of ink, I figure the cost is less than my ink cartridge cost.
For 175's, ( I usually do 6-8), I redo the labels on a Avery template that has 10 labels per sheet, (for perfect sizing), and print in my Ink Jet.

Yes that is exactly what I have and i think it does a great job without spraying the labels.

Joeswine asked me to post his Amarone wine label for him. We swapped bottles and I was really taken by the sleek look. I know there is a thread somewhere to post labels but couldn't find it. One of you smart people feel free to move this post for Joe.
