I've had it from a local winery in Shelton, Ct. and it is delicous. I bet AAA's is even better. Yum!!!!
 
Pitched the yeast tonight, lavin 1118, juice is nice and red!!

Give the blueberry wine a stir everyday, it's looking good and
fermentation is going much faster this year, I think due to the yeast
energizer and maybe now that I am sure to oxygenize the juice and water
before starting.

Just got home from night shift, searing this sirloin in the smoker now,
I can turn it down and go to bed in an hour!! (and wake up to a smoked
roast breakfast) it's been marinating in garlic all night.

I started telling PWP about my sirloin and remembered I had to
put this jerkey in the food dryer this morning also, it's a meaty day
here in Maine!!..lo

I just racked the 1st blueberry to the secondary at 1.020SG it's got an
10%PA I'm just under 6 gallons, I'll put it on oak cubes from George
when it's done fermenting and use a 5 gallon carboy and a smaller jug
for the rest.

Between the roast and the blueberry wine me thinks I might have to move back to Maine and give youa hand with all that work, smoking meat, making wine, making syrup, cutting wood, stacking wood, unburying trucks after spring thaw............ on second thought I'd better stay in Maryland and watch you make wine.

Man Stinkie,


You make it tough to read the posts here. Between the beautiful roast and the blueberry wine, I'm druelling all over my keyboard

. I've been tempted to order blueberry bushes for my back yard, but I've read they need acid. I'm inspired now to go ahead!
 
I don't grow anything, just go to farms or the guy on the side of the
road and get my fruits and veggy's, maybe that's why I have the time to
do everything..lol one time a guy was selling 1/2 pigs out of the back
of his truck, you know I had to have one...lol
 
I had the right side of the pig, it just looked like they took a
bandsaw and cut it in half, his nose was still there and
everything...lol I came home and just cut it up and froze it!!

OK so I wouldn't be a slacker today I just bottled 5 gallons of Maple Syrup, getting behind on my friends list..lol



Polly and Clown boy asked for pancakes, I said how about you help me
clean up this mess, Clown said (I call him Clown) how about you make
our pancakes and we can watch YOU clean up while we eat,
aaaaahhhhhahahahah!!! (he has quite a sense of humor).

You are so productive, Stinkie..............


I don't know how you do it.

Can you send some "productiveness" over to Ohio?
 
Before I was playing dress up today, I bottled a batch of Piesporter wine.

Went to the Maine Coast, Rockland, yesterday with my daughter Hope,
caught a few Mackerel, and enjoyed the beauty!! (oh, and pickled more
beets when I got home)
