winemaking in the East
Sorry that I didn't get back and say the it finally kicked off and
everything seems to be OK. I thought I had but it was to another
Alabama winemaker
Joe, Your 3 bucket press worked fine in it's initial outing. I have a
Harbor Freight bearing press in my shop that it just fits into. I put
the bathroom scale on a plank on top and pressed until the reading held
steady for a little while. This was just a small shot from 2 vines of
Traminette so we'll see how fast the turn around will be with more but
it sure won't be too long.
