The stuff we'd
actually buy again

The actual wine — concentrate kits, fresh juice pails, the works.

Buckets, carboys, airlocks — the gear your wine actually lives in.

Moving wine without making a mess of it (or your kitchen floor).

Hydrometers, refractometers, pH meters — the honest instruments.

The boring half of the hobby. Also the half that saves your batch.

Bottles, corks, corkers, the bottle tree — and a roll of blue painters tape.

Yeast strains, nutrients, sulfites, fining agents — the chemistry shelf.

Chips, cubes, spirals, staves — the difference between fine and forgettable.

Spoons, scales, funnels, gloves — the small stuff that makes everything easier.

What to wrap for the friend who'd rather drink it than make it.

For the friend with a carboy in the basement and stained fingers in October.

Label your batch, dress the bottle, hand it over. Weddings, holidays, housewarmings, party favors.
