then I have sheets of labels that look like this and when I'm ready to use them I take a razor and a ruler and cut them out...

Smacking myself for not thinking of this. It's been taking forever with scissors..lol! Thanks for the idea!

I'm so proud I got 29 and 3/4 bottles out of this batch of berry stinger skeeter pee would have been a full 30 but I had to taste inspired by Lon and Dave! Thanks Guy's!!!!

Wow, very nice. I like the look of the red shrink cap. I've been trying to decide what color to put on mine but haven't picked yet. I love your label too!

It sure is fun watching someone else go through the same process with you. We've both got some yummy goodness to enjoy this summer.

My wife is really crafty, she uses a paper cutter maybe it's called a shear but it cuts perfectly square edges and very fast.

I want to start a apple cinnamon type wine...

I suggest trying this recipe.

Upstate Mike's Caramel Apple Cider

I made this and it turned out great in just 9 days! I call it Apple Pie Cider.

Neat. We owned a few businesses in Nederland, Yorks/South Yorks drive ins, Starship Hallmark and the Cookie Company in the mall.

Wanted to give you an update in case you decide to try this recipe. My corks started popping a few days ago and I ended up having to dump it all out due to excessive carbonation.

The recipe says to rack off yeast and add campden at 1.010 to stop fermentation. Knowing that wouldn't do the trick, I also added potassium sorbate. Well that didn't do the trick either! Basically if you try that recipe, be sure to ferment dry first (don't try to stop at 1.010). I am starting a batch of Apple Pie Cider using my own recipe today (that won't explode...lol) so I'll post it in case you want to try.

 

[cindy]

whoa.. thanks for the heads up, please keep me posted about how your recipe turns out.
Thanks!

Thats crazy they would have you try and stop a fermentation like that, unless if they just wanted you to rack to a secondary and finish the fermentation. I agree with you, let 'er go dry then stabilize.

LOL, sorry to hear about your explosions but if you think about it, a wine in 9 days? Glad to hear you are using you own recipe. I always tell people, a recipe is only a guideline not set in stone.
