👋👋👋 I have a small grape vine that I use. I've also made it out of dandelions.

I'm only into home brewing (MrBeer) but am looking to get into whine making. Any specific or name brand kits I should look into?

I make all of my kits. It's much more rewarding that way.

All you need is this book "From Vines to Wines by Jeff Cox.
I am in the middle of wine country so getting grapes are easy. Have not used a Kit.
Used to make Beer for years and years. Wine is a less affected by infection than Beer.
Basically you have to stuff the pipe for what you want to drink 3 years from now and make it today. That is why I started making white wine because you can start drinking it sooner.

Not that hard to do as you must know. Plus it is nice to break out a bottle of your own when friends come over
