How to Get Started Making Your Own Wine

It is often the first thing people ask, “I always wanted to make my own wine, but I didn’t know how. What do I need to get started?” There is so much information out there that it can be overwhelming to the beginning and sometimes walking into your local wine equipment supply store can be intimidating if you don’t know what you are looking for or what things are. For this reason, we have decided it was important to discuss the equipment you truly need, and maybe a few we strongly recommend to make life easier, to start making your own wine. By the time we are done with this new series of posts, we hope you will have the knowledge to evaluate the various levels of Wine Making Equipment Kits out there to determine which is best for you. We will discuss it all from primary fermentation containers, to airlocks, carboys – glass & better bottles, to corkers, corks and bottle fillers. If there is a particular part you are looking for information on or have been debating purchasing, please let us know so we can address it.

We will start tomorrow with Primary Fermentation Containers.
