Found this forum bout 2 weeks ago and never introduced my self.
Been appreciating wine for years and just got a full blown wine kit for xmas.
The rest is history, I have jumped in with both feet and having a blast!
Presently got going;

winexpert 6 gal cab/merlot-final, extending b4 bottling
6 gallon strawberry wine - fermenting
5 gallon apple wine - stabalizing & clearing
4 gallon concord grape - stabalizing & clearing
1 gallon mead - clearing very nice
1 gallon red metheglin- stabalizing & clearing
1 gallon pineapple wine - clearing
2 gallon pineapple/orange/banana wine - just finished fermenting

books; making wild wines & meads
the home winemakers companion
winemaker's recipe handbook
the winemaker's answer book
....so far.

Yep, kinda jumped in full steam ahead !

Looks like you are off to a good, fast start! I bet those will taste great when you are finished. I have heard you won't get much / any banana flavor from the banana mix. I really want to do a pineapple, let us know how it turns out for you.

Javila, go go go go! It is a great hobby and this forum can aid you if needed. Browse the entire home page as there is a lot of neat stuff there.

Another great resourse for learning is Lum Eisenman's Home Wine Making manual. Google his name and it's a free download. Excellent!

Welcome.
