I don't doubt that. I did deliberately buy a cheaper kit as my first
experience. Just to get used to it. I don't know why, but I excpected it
to be better. Even at the price of the most expensive kits out there, it's
a heck of a lot cheaper than what we pay now. So if I can make wine as good
as or better than what we buy now.. I will be extremely pleased. Money
isn't the real motivator, but it does help.

My next kit is $120, and after that is $160. I already own them. I fully
expected it would be like this, but after trying my first $60 kit.. I
expected more but there are lots of reasons it could have not been good.
Which is why I posted. If the majority of the reason is the kit I bought..
that's actually great news because that means making great wine is really
easy even for a newbie and I can simply buy my way into good wine made at
home.

Thanks. This is the sort of dialog I was hoping for. There are a few other
great comments too that I hope to capture in my next round.
