    I have all the equipment to brew beer at home. What added supplies do I need? Any help would be great.

    Added supplies to make wine? Hard to say since we have no idea what you have.

    Depends on what you want to brew. Different wines take different ingredients/additives. Find a recipe you would like to try and get the stuff for it. A bucket and a couple 5g carboy's are helpful for 5g batches. 1g carboy would work for a 1g batch of juice wine, etc.

    If you make beer you can make wine. Same process just different ingredients. If you're using a kit then you don't even have to worry about that part of it. You'll need wine bottles of course and if you don't have a shop filter and bottle it, then you'll need a filter (if you want to filter it) and a corker (u can get one for $15), but you won't need that for a couple months so get it started and worry about that later... And alot of patience.
