I took a leap of faith and bought $10k during the first investment round which is what set off my winemaking journey here 😂 Hopefully it'll pay off one day 🤷‍♂️

Paid a designer on Fiverr to come up with this - with a few tweaks from the original rendition.

Awesomely creative - I just may do this. Thanks for the idea!

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately this is the one I bought and it was far too large for the 20 liter barrel. I actually widdled it down with a razor blade and made it fit as a temporary option but it was hard to get it to seal.

Thanks John, I can't seem to find a silicone stopper that will fit this barrel on morewinemaking - any suggestions as to where I can find a suitable stopper? I guess it needs to be food grade?

Darn, I thought I was being more unique than I actually was!! Great names all around 👍👍

First few batches and labels
