What R you doing today?

[ffemt128]

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.

Julie and I live an 45 min to an hour away from each other and Dan is 2 hours from me and an hour from Julie. Crtanberry is about 1/2 hour from where you will be staying.

Went to another beginning wine making class at Mr Steve's in York which is good because he always gives samples. So even though I don't learn much there anymore (thanks to you guys) I like the samples...

I pitched the yeast in my strawberry last night and it is just roaring away.. NICE!

Bought and peeled two bags of oranges today for my next adventure.. Orange wine...

(while sitting for 3 hours and watching the Steelers game) hahaha

By the way Dan I appreciate the change in my avatar.. I just couldn't figure out how to make it dance like yours did... hahaha

HA HA I noticed that. Orange wine sounds really good. I can't wait to hear the results! That was one heck of a game. I wonder if the Ravens knew we were just teasing them during the first half.

I refer you back to post #3935. lol!!!!

Yes it was an awesome game.. I wasn't so happy at half time though... Redtrk... I'm sorry... haha I got the orange wine recipe from our locals webpage. It sounds really good and refreshing like SP so I thought I would give it a try.. They had oranges on sale at Giant today also.. haha

Been up since 5:30 removing labels from 2 cases of bottles. That little steamer of ours really does the trick! However there are a few with some kind of glue that it won't take off but for the most part it makes it quick.

Ok how about Primanti Bros in Cranberry on Wednesday?

Nevermind I found it. I looked up Cranberry Pa and it was north of I-80. I was thinking YIKES, that's a haul.

Cranberry Twp.

Cranberry, PA 16066

Yes that one but is should be Cranberry Twp not Cranberry cuz Cranberry is a farther up north. You should only be about 25 - 30 minutes away.

Give me a time and I'll be there. If your wife needs the car, let me know and I can probably swing by and pick you up. Don't have much in the way of "ready" wine but once we get a count I'll pull a couple bottles for "distribution". if Dan is coming I'll make sure I clean up his Ice Wine bottle so that I can return it for a refill. Just kidding Dan, I'll bring the bottle though.

Tuesday night I have fire practice, teaching a CPR class, but Wednesday night is open also if you want to stop over for a glass of wine.

Thanks for the offer for Wed evening but the boss, (Vicki) just told me that we are having dinner with some of the people from her Pittsburgh branch that night.

As for "bottles for distribution" i'm sorry but my first wine it still in clearing and my second is in the primary so I have nothing to share yet.

But I'm looking forward to Wednesday lunch.

Racked all my 30 gallons of wine. Whites are still dropping crystals as was the Ruby Cabernet. All are crystal clear at 4 months. I'll probably still filter the whites prior to bottling in April.

 

[djrockinsteve]

Racked to fine my 2 versions of Candy Cane wine. Some of the red faded from the one as it's now pinkish. I'll give it a few weeks and sample after clearing.

Any thoughts on how far to back sweeten?
