The burbling through the airlock has slowed considerably. I think the yeast is running out of snackers. We should be right on schedule to rack this run some time this weekend.

This brings us to a task I’ve been punting for a while now. Somehow we need to scavenge, scrounge, or rustle up about three dozen 750ml wine bottles in the next two weeks. You have any we can use? Quite likely some percentage of your empties will be returned to you in a much less empty state…just in time for the holidays.
