Hello from northern WI

[tmh4064]

Hello my name is Tina and I'm from northern Wi. I received a winemaking kit for Christmas and just getting ready to start my first batch!! I think I'm going to like it here

Well, welcome Tina, this is a wonderful place to learn and you'll find the people are very friendly and will give you plenty of good advice.
When you say kit, do you mean an equipment kit or a wine juice kit? Juice kits are an easy way to begin this great hobby ( some will say obsession).
Good luck .. Doug

Hi Tina, great to have you here. Let us know some of the details about your wine kit. Ask away any questions.

Wine making is a blast and basically simple as long as you follow some basic things. Read over the directions and if you have any questions or are confused don't hesitate to ask.

You can search this site for some of your answers and a ton of knowledge.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome! My equipment came with the supplies to make a 5 gallon batch of wine. (Equipment,additives and peach fruit wine base).

Is this a Vintners Harvest wine base. I have made many of these and can say that they have 2 recipes on the can and the 3 gallon recipe is 1 much better followed! Do you have a 5 or 6 galln carboy? Glad to have you here on our forum and hope you stay which Im sure you will cause this hobby is addicting!

If you ever get down to the Stevens Point area, Point Brew Supply has some great prices. No affiliation, except that I've purchased from them before. Super nice people. they have a website you can also order from:

However, I've found their in store prices to be even cheaper on some stuff.
