Grapes are ready on Thursday. Here's the initial plan.
1. Lee has reserved the crusher/destemmer.
2. Mike (and Troy if I can) will pull Troy's trailer over and we will pick up grapes at 8AM. Lee will communicate the schedule to Dennis.
3. Bob and Lee will get the crusher from Dennis and start the sanitation w/ the pressure washer.
4. Crush/destem once we get back. This year we're holding the juice in the large blue barrel to settle for 48hrs (possibly with a fining agent TBD).
5. Saturday we will transfer the settled juice to the large oak barrel plus the 2 new 15G barrells (Bob, Michele), and innoculate.
