Please bear with me if this subject is already addressed....I haven't seen
yet in the last week or so of scouring this newsgroup, but could somebody
tell me even more basically what is involved with starting to make wine. I
mean as simple as what the first steps are, what the terms mean, etc. Most
of what I'm reading here I don't understand...racking, airlock, 2nd rack,
3rd rack, etc. I have visited Jack Keller's site and found it very helpful
but am having trouble matching up his information with actual steps in the
process especially the steps I'm seeing discussed here. Could someone
provide me with an overview or outline.

Thanks in advance,
