Amazon is nice for pricing on many items so each of these items was $10 or less except for the Yeast Energizer which was $13.75. 1 pound of each will go a long way with making 6 gallon batches. I have enough yeast to make 24 batches right now with what I bought and what I still have on hand. Just waiting on airlocks and I can have 12 more batches going at once, I'll have to get another pack of 12 before the end of the year.

First wine on the list will be a solid mixed berry with about 5 lbs each Juneberry, Chokecherry, Elderberry, and Hawthorne. I have my most recent mixed berry but it is primarily chokecherry so I want a better balanced one. Then I will do a straight Hawthorne since I have so many in the freezer. I'm really looking forward to the Hawthorne and then this fall I will collect a bunch of Mountain Ash berries for a batch. Trying to only use personally harvested berries, fruits, and produce for the wines that I make and so far am.

NOW if it would just cool off enough that I could heat my sugar water without cooking the house as well, that would be very nice of Nature! 

As a side note: Wine yeast will maintain viability for a long time if kept in the fridge. I am using stuff that is 4 years old now and it is working fine. Takes a little longer to kick into gear but it is still fermenting. Granted I can't be scientific about the quality of my output, that is all anecdotal for now.

This is the pallet of Isopropyl Alcohol jugs I got for $1 each at the Junkworx store in Spokane. Of the 36 I used 12 for nest boxes for the chickens and have 24 for making wine.
