I understand that a #9 would be preferable over a #8 because of the tighter fit but what would be the difference between the long and the short?? :?

Not that I have a wealth of experience with barrels but I just went through this with my new barrel. After the initial prep there were no leaks and so I was ready to fill with wine. After filling with the wine I began to notice some seepage and after some research I attributed it to the fact due...

Especially once you pass 50. :d

It was also my understanding that the aliens had it posted on the Internet so it must be true. :c

Oh I get it now. I only have my first wine in my barrel but I tried to rack enough and wait till it was clear before it went into the barrel because I don't want to have to try to clean any sediment out of the barrel. I just gave it a taste tonight and it's getting close to bottling time, maybe...

Just out of curiosity why do you transfer to the Brute in order to bottle? Couldn't you just bottle directly from the barrel?? :?

Nothing to do with lurication but a wood finish. I read the reviews and it seemed to perform more like a ureathane then an oil finish. So I gave it a try. After a few coats it becomes a hard finish like a ureathane and not an oil just as the reviews stated. A third of the price of EZ Do and was...

I wanted to add some fresh grapes to the juice pails I was making but I didn't have a press to use for when it came time in the process to take that step. I had read on the forum about several different versions of home made presses so I thought I would give the bucket press a try. One thing...

Great article. ;)

I'll be start this kit in a week or two. Glad to see your revamping this. :D

Thanks for the tip I'll have to check it out. ;)

I have never tried a comercial Amarone, is there one out there that wouldn't break the bank that you would recomend?? :?

Has anyone tried this product?? I'm planning on refinishing a press I aquired and some other wood that will come into contact with the wine and I've read that people have used EZ Do for that purpose but in looking around at other similiar products I came across a product called Watco's Butcher...
