2007 - what do you have in production

[Wade E]

I have 2lbs of blueberries in one of our freezers and they just went on
sale starting tommorow\, buy two pints get three free so Ill be
stocking up on my next batch which will be the blueberry- Pom melomel
that I was going to do a small batch of but decided against it due to
the temps in our basement. Cant wait till April when I get my basement
waterproofed so that I can throw heat in and finish it and be able to
do wine all year round!

They have 3 pound bags of frozen blueberries here, cost is about $5 to $8 a bag as I recall. I know my wife was looking at them here and they were $3.99 for a half pint.

 

[Wade E]

Im not to fond of the frozen blueberries that I have purchased from my
local grocery store or BJ's and I dont have a Sam's club card. the
frozen ones Ive bought before had ver little flavor except for the
Wyman's wild but thetre expensive.

23l RJS 2007 RQ Chilean Malbec
23l RJS 2007 RQ Unoaked Chardonnay
23l "Pink" (mostly white grape juice from Chile with 5 bunches of red thrown in. This is highly experimental, but so far smells awesome!)
11.5l vanilla mead (started in spring 2006)
23l Summer Strawberry (Made from fresh jam quality, very mushy strawberries)
23L RJS Rosso Grande
23L RJS 2006 RQ Spanish Monsatrell

Bottled:
about 900 bottles of various wines from RJS, CC, and WE, as well as some of my own. I'd list it, but would be typing too long. I usually don't repeat kits as there is still too many to try out, but the RJS Winery Series definately bear repeating! I get far too many compliments on them to not keep a solid stock, and I enjoy them very much as well.

EDIT: I did not include beer in this list.

to brew: (ingredients ready)
Mexican Cerveza (Dos Equis clone)
Pilsner (Czechvar clone)

on tap:
Super Hoppy Pacific IPA (you can't have too much hops!)
Winterfest Heavy ale (think spicy and perfect with Xmas turkey dinner)Edited by: Dean

So many options......Aint that a great thing?!!

Whatever you order, just be sure to order another carboy! This way you will have that empty carboy to use when racking for the 2nd or 3rd time.
Ain't this a great thing!?!

 

[OGrav]

just bottled: strawberry/grape and cranberry


last days in secondary: blueberry/pomegranate


wish list, you name it, but I have about 50 bottles of wine now and I drink about 2/3 a month. Probably another straight blueberry, that came out real nice, and I want to try a batch of juice/concentrate peach. I need some wine drinkers!

 

[SIXTO]

[rgecaprock]

I racked my WE Pinot Grigio and the Green Tea-Ginger today from the primary. You'll see my other two sixers in the background with Riesling and Mezza Luna. I just realized I need another carboy....I'll be paying a visit to George.
