Brain Dump As you may remember on Jan 18, 2009, I posted a blog about starting some homebrew wine. Well, within 2 weeks it had stopped bubbling, I did the the weight test, and it’s registering at 1001, which means we’re good to go.
I popped out at the weekend and got myself 6 x 1Lt bottles, and some corks.
The last 2 packets of the formular have been added to the bottle (approx 24 hours ago), and I’ve just put it in a cold place to settle.
Fingers crossed, in approx 7 days, I shall have 6 Litres of homebrew red wine……I think that’s going to hurt.

Brain Dump Antirealism popped in to see me today on his way back from London and dropped off a pressy.
Over Christmas when myself and C when to see family in sunny Yorkshire, we popped in to see Anti, and I ended up sampling his homebrew wine. I had a small glass and it nearly took my head off. Apparently, 3 glasses will make your face go numb, according to the father of said homebrew.
Anyway, Anti popped in as I mentioned, and dropped off the full kit for brewing my own. The deed is done, it’s currently sat in my airing cupboard bubbling away, and in a matter of weeks, I’ll have a gallon of homebrew wine.
My feeling is, that it could take me a while to drink, as I was pretty much a mess on 1 glass 
Anyway, cheers Anti, counting down the time till my face goes numb and I spend the evening being sick, lol
