They may have the fill your own bottles here too but I never heard of it. Thinking on my feet comes naturally to me as I can do problem solving when under pressure, except math. The good ideas rises to the top some how. lol...Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03423754263165266554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876827638819064500.post-58643336965122849612010-09-28T13:07:12.944-03:002010-09-28T13:07:12.944-03:00This comment has been removed by the author.Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03423754263165266554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876827638819064500.post-72013646665113265452010-09-28T11:07:10.782-03:002010-09-28T11:07:10.782-03:00Hi Julia,

But with so much on your mind its easy for some things to slip through. I agree with Farm Girl - quick thinking on your part. <br />One of our liquor stores has a bottle your own station. They have two or three different types of white and red and it works out to around $4 a bottle. I usually get a case before the holidays.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04738934059756079283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876827638819064500.post-38180744756933900282010-09-27T23:54:15.101-03:002010-09-27T23:54:15.101-03:00Hi Farm Girl.

Thre are other shops who sells kits also. Here is how it works, you choose which wine you want, and pay for the grape juice extract that comes in a plastic bag in a box and they pour it in a pail that is lined with a thick plastic bag they add the water and what ever else is needed and they give the client a package of brewers yeast and tell you to sprinkle it on top and they do the rest. They let it ferment for as long as it takes and tell you when approximately it will be ready by giving you a date for you to call for an appointment to bottle your wine. You can either bring your own clean bottles or buy theirs. The bottles are sanitized there the bigger bottles have to be sanitized one at a time and the smaller bottles are sanitized in a dishwasher that takes only seconds. They show you how to put the cork in the machine and pull a leaver and the cork goes in the bottle and you put it in the case and take it home. You can buy the labels and stick them on at home. You need a wine rack to store your wine.

It sounds really amazing. I will be interested to read how they do the whole process. When you say you sprinkle the yeast, does that mean you have the bucket of wine then you take it back? I have never heard of this.<br />I need to get off of this computer and do my 10 minute hooking too. It has bee a busy day but it was 100 and it is hard for me to sit with the hot rug on my legs.<br />Have a great Tuesday. Oh yes, my chickens are in an enclosed pen or I am sure the hawk and his wife would have already had chicken for dinner. But you have Bald Eagles? How amazing.<br />I am sure that has to be breath taking to see.<br />Thanks for your comments I feel like I learn so much.Farm Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00998621464797636686noreply@blogger.com
