What R you doing today?

[Runningwolf]

So Dan, how are you suppose to read the numbers with that thing.

Its really a time capsule for next year. Cap unscrews and there is thin bubble wrap in each end and some wrapped around it. There are conversion calculators on the internet to convert brix to sg.

Started a Blackberry/Cab IM kit yesterday. Added 3# sugar (predesolved), and none of the f-pac.

Thanks for all of the comments in the IM kit mod thread. This is my starting point to see how I like the kit. May do other mods in the future based on the results of this one.

Also racked a straight Welch's concord and an apple/blackberry ...

Racked both jalapeno wines (apple juice/concentrate based & white grape concentrate based).
Even though they had been in secondary only just over a week, they had dropped a lot of sediment. That, coupled with the need to add sorbate and campden (since i had moved to secondary while still technically fermenting), had me rack most of the gunk off tonight.

I am thanking God.
I know religion and politics are generally frowned upon, but..

All 33 Chilean miners are alive and out of the mine that collapsed on August 5th.

It's a great day.

Itsuko is home safe and sound. She flew standby from Tokyo to Chicago and was seated in first class for the flight. I think she liked that. The first flight from Chicago to Buffalo filled out so she didn't make that one but she did get on the next flight that arrived in Buffalo at dark hour 0005AM. Way past my bedtime but I bit the bullet and went and got her. Her bags were locked up in the baggage office because they arrived on the previous flight. But all went well and it's good to have her back home. The flowers went over well and I may have earned a few points. And she brought me this nice mask which I hung on the wall this morning.

Did the mask tell you a lie? (thinking of Pinocchio )

snicker...

 

[Deezil]

Nice collection of masks there, Larry.

Always been intrigued by wooden masks and death masks

Had a meeting at 3:00 that was cancelled after I left work early, picked up my daughter and now sitting here typing this while enjoying a glass of wine.

 

[Tom]

I/We (wife) ended up with a bottle of Cab Sav and some Pinot Grigio. Apple wine is on the brain right now as I just finished (hour ago) baking a fresh apple pie. I'm thinking wine and pie are a perfect combination.

 

[Tom]

Sounds good to me!
Apple wine and Apple pie.. GREAt combo ...

 

[Runningwolf]

Bottled my South African Chenin Blanc after going out and picking up 7 gallons each of Cayuga and Niagara. I will be blending these.

 

[Tom]

I have the day off.
So, I decided I would TRY to dent my supply of Beer and Wine..

BTW.. I FAILED to make a dent.

I believe it! I am going to order one of those racks from Sam's club that holds 168 bottles this weekend. I am out of room and so much to come. Setting up outside of the wine cellar now. Time for another party.

 

[Tom]

Good Luck. Last time I looked they were "Out of Stock"

 

[Runningwolf]

Commercial Wine Rack In stock
$80.88 Online

 

[Tom]

Whats the shipping its heavy ! I think its about $25?

 

[Runningwolf]

It is expensive but if the deal was $100 with free shipping it would seem like a heck of a deal! Hard to find a rack that holds 168 bottles for about $100. I did look at buying two to see if shipping came down but it just doubles (I had a freind interested in one also).

Subtotal: $80.88
Standard $21.20 (3-8 business days)
Estimated Tax: $6.12
TOTAL: $108.20

 

[Tom]

U forget.
I bought 3 of those and was cheaper than that but, just like everything else prices go up. I had mine for 4 years.
Still a great deal for that rack.
U will LOVE it ! As will anyone else who buys one
