I know this is a old thread but thought i'd just mentions this tip i pick up from Big Secue on Youtube: For really REALLY stubbon glue that even OxyClean wont remove try rubbing with olive oil and leaving for a few mins and then scrub with a rough dish sponge.. worked a treat on Hook Norton...

Mine are both Ferrari. .Maybe I brought the wrong one? Though I perfer to use it on the counter top any how.

I got the 82 bottle tree for Christmas but cant seem to get the vinerator to fit on top with the atachment supplied?? However both are great!! i was a bit sceptical regarding the vinerator but it's a good peice of kit.

Hi HBT, I've been lurking for a while and thought I’d better join and say a big hello.. Thanks for all the great info here it's really inspired me to get into making my own beer. A little about myself: About 4 years ago i was on holiday camping down the west coast of the US and sampled...
