Well, since I absolutely don't need to bring home any more carboys (unless we build an addition to the house) I'd better get into bottling mode this week. I have two ciders to bottle. One seems a fair bit more clear than the other, so probably will bottle that one. Also have a Chardonnay , a Brunello, and a Trio Blanco from last summer to bottle. Can't say I have enough bottles/rack space to do all three wines though. Have a dunkel to rack and another pilsner right behind that. I'm thinking about the bock I want to do next....last year's version was quite nice. A hellesbock with honey malt and a pound of honey, one decoction. Mmmmmmmmmm. Maybe I'll do that again, maybe I'll think about other ones. The bock slurry would make a fine Octoberfest too. Haven't done one of those in a while.
