Doug, and the rest of the folks in the tri state area, All American Containers Wine Bottles sell new bottles for less than $6.00 a case. This is where we're picking up Ice Wine bottles. They have warehouses around the country including the NJ area I believe.

My wife made some sloppy joes for dinner that were lacking something in taste and we couldn't quiet put our finger on it. Then out of the blue I got this crazy idea, "jalapeno wine". Yup that did it. It was awesome!

Hey Dan i'm not sure what part of the state you are from but I will be in PA next week and $6 a case bottle are a deal. I will be in Pittsburgh Tues - Thurs is anywhere close?
 
Well today I racked 12 gallons of apple wine, 10 gallons of Red Muscadine, 7 1/2 gallons of Elderberry Blueberry and 6 gallons of Noble Muscadine. I also stabilized the Noble and Elderberry Blueberry.

When that was all complete I cleaned 4 cases of empties and boxed the other 2 cases that were already cleaned. I'm slowly building a supply of bottles. I'm up to about 18-20 cases cleaned and ready to go other than rinsing and sanitizing at bottle time. I'll probably be picking up another 15-20 cases of empties before the end of then month. I think I have enough green bottles for my red wines that will be bottled in the next 3 months but I don't think I have enough clear bottles for everything yet.

What a Braggart

Thanks! We will be staying at the Comfort Inn in Steubenville. My wife has to train another branch on some computer stuff and I will be hanging out all day looking for something to do. This will work in nicely along with picking up some Yuengling for me and my friends since we can't get it here.
 
I am assuming you mean Steubenville Oh. which is only about 1.5 hours away. Another fun place the guys go to down there is the Strip District to Consumers Produce .They have a lot of wine making supplies from small items to big presses and kegs.

Do you know where they are located Dan? This is a heck of a deal.

Looking at their site they are in Belle Vernon. Looks to be about a 45 minute ride for me.

If you're staying at the comfort in, you are about 5 minutes from my house. Shoot me a PM and I'll give you my number. If this is where I think it is it is on top of the hill above Kings Family Rest. I'm right down the road.

You're welcome to stop down for a glass or 2, it's always fun meeting people from the forum.

I might take you up on that! On my motorcycle forum we call it RTE, (ride to eat) and we meet up somewhere on our motorcycles and just like it sounds ride to eat. We usually pick something really good and far away so we get a nice long ride in. I'm not sure what you would call it on a wine making forum.
 
Whoa, Redtrk,

You are going to be in the Pittsburgh area next week? Are you going to have a vehicle during the day? I can cut out at lunch time and meet up in Cranberry, Steve & Doug what do you say about this? Dan you can come down again, actually I can take a half a day off. Ok Redtrk are you interested in meeting up for a lunch sometime next week?

Alright I know I get excited when it comes to meeting in person more members on here.

My wife has to go to http://www.nccrs.com/Pittsburgh.html to train their branch and I am going along for some time off and away from home so I will be looking for something to do. I thought about checking out some of the local motorcycle shops and wine/beer supply stores there. We're staying at http://www.comfortinn.com/hotel-pittsburgh-pennsylvania-PA315?sid=8Ea6i.X6Aergycd.13 and we get there about noon on Tuesday and she goes to work. I have that afternoon, all day Wednesday, then we leave about noon on Thursday so yes I would be up for lunch and as many wine making pointers and suggestions anyone wants to throw at me.

Since you and Julie know the area find something close for both of you on Wednesday and I will meet you two and anyone else there. Maybe neither of you would have to miss work that way.

Wednesday is the day that would work for me. Maybe meet in Cranberry again. Of course this is all weather dependant.
