Appleman:
thanks for the insight. I had pretty much figured at 6-7% the IM kits were going to make coolers. My initial idea was to get something in the bottle we could drink while I worked on a more serious endeavor. I'm glad to hear the Australian Shiraz was a worthwhile kit as I must admit to having given it a serious look. Besides the Lady of the house has expressed an interest in a Shiraz as well as a Merlot and a Pinot Noir. I guess she figures once I retire in Nov '06 I'll have plenty of time on my hands, can't say as I disagree.
In any event, this has been a wonderful experience so far and I look forward to sharing pix of the project as soon as I return from this little trip I need to take. Additionally, I don't want to get too stacked up as the house is up for sale and we're moving to a mountain in WVa. to hunt, fish, make split bamboo fly rods and a little wine now and then. Nice retirement plans eh?
