Hmm...excavator AND a massager, for those hard to reach...nevermind.Or that Hitachi earth mover.... err other thing combination.
It will be fun. I accidently bought the Ferrari corker on sale and with a coupon. It makes bottling a blast. View attachment 14290
Haha, I'll start with a cheaper hand held to start.
Any experiences with screw top wine bottles and caps?
The genuine conversation that took place when that photo was taken went something like this:@Vesparados, looks like you're practicing for a career as a Ferrari model...but, not the car kind.
Hahaha! Well, I'm glad those conversations take place in other houses besides mine.The genuine conversation that took place when that photo was taken went something like this:
Me: "I think I assembled it correctly."
Carol: "Did you see the assembly instructions in the bottom of the box?"
Me: "No"
Me: "I don't need no stinking instructions!"
Carol: "It works pretty well, that's cool."
Me: "It's a Ferrari, I think it has made me better looking."
Carol: "No"
Oh! Thanks for the heads up! I'm preparing to do my 1st racking, and hope to get my second kit started soon...and looking at getting another kit also lol.
Stupid wine. All I need is another rabbit hole and more brewing crap.
Well, I've made my own soaps for years.Do you want to talk a little about fermenting foods, like pickles? How about soapmaking? Kombucha? Slippery slope and all that.
About 10 years ago, I had about 7 or 8 guys on homebrewtalk.com making soap. They still are discussing kimchee, sauerkraut, pickles, etc.
That's all we use.Anyone use their refractometer for testing gravity on their wine? I see everyone using hydrometers which is fine, but I'd much rather deal with drops.
Good to know.That's all we use.

Indeed, good minds think alike!Yep, that’s what I use as well. But sometimes I check Fg with a hydrometer before kegging/bottling so we can have a sample.
So it appears that I cannot get frozen Welche's any more at any of my local grocery stores but I can get a 3 quart bottle for about $5.50 and it has Citric and Ascorbic acid added to it. Would either of these present a change in the recipe? All I recall that was in the frozen stuff was grapes.
