Re: Congrats to the USWNT
Amazing game, so many historic moments. Just bummed I didn't get tickets since Vancouver is only a couple hours drive.

Re: Winemakers
I know it's a bit early but have you tried any of the wine yet? I'm thinking I'll open one bottle a month, I think it will be interesting to taste the progression.

Re: Winemakers
Seven days or so of primary fermentation, then rack it to the secondary fermentor and allow another four weeks of fermentation prior to bottling.
Starting gravity of 1.090.

Re: Blank cigar bands
I've started using the aforementioned spreadsheet and scotch tape, works good enough for me without spending extra cash. So I'll take my name out of the group buy.
