Winemaking area

[Wade E]

Okay, now I have to make racks for all my empties in my winemaking area
and then start phase 2 which is the wine cellar area. I have it already
framed this room and most of the bedroom during downtime when I was
witing to get the special switch for my winemaking area. Below are
pictures of the area designated for the cellar which already has most
of my wine sitting in boxes or crates for easy moving . I just had to
get them into the basement as it was starting to get warm upstairs. In
this corner it stays at a pretty consistant 66* with a humidity of 76%.

It is approximately 10' x 8' and has a 45* angle at the door and houses
the water tank, breaker box and the generator emergency breaker box.
The freezer will not be in this room but is now just to keep it out of
the way until I get the racks for the empties done. Right now I have
300 bottles which are all delabeled that need to go in my winemaking
area.

Cleaned up like nothing. I better be a little more careful with the
blueberry though as thats a much darker wine and may not have the same
result!

P.S. I didnt get a call or a straw!!

[Wade E]

1st......Now you just have to dégorge your sparkling wine in there and get the walls broke in too.


2nd...where do you shop to get those little baskets your storing your wine in??? And how do you get them out of the store???

 

[Trigham]

I just realized

those bottles are all filled, what did u say your address was again Wade??

 

[Wade E]

I have a friend who works at a grocery store called Big-Y in which he
gives me some every once in awhile(when my new batch is done)

Trig Ill give you my address but then Im holding you to your word that you have to come over and drink some!

And by the way trig, thats not all of them!

Your volcano is why I always put the carboy on an old bath towel before degassing.

I keep saying to myself that this one will be the one that will not do this!
