Ah the great thing about a box is that you don't really need a glass although glugging from the tap may be considered uncultured in some circles ;)

It is the environmentally friendly way to do it though... none of that power and hot water to waste on washing up. :)

Youngs have been doing Double chocolate stout as a seasonal drink for years (it's got chocolate malt and real chocolate in it) I've just taken an Irish stout kit, boiled up some cocoa (though you can use bakers chocolate) then brewed it as normal...

A Tesco 'Central Valley' Chilean Cabernet that was filled Oct '98, atm - not too bad - the dilemma now is whether to try another box of the same, or a French Shiraz - decisions, decisions ;)

The joys of the wine box.... I've always resisted because I'd not stop until it was empty at which point I would be caned beyond comprehension since there's only me that really drinks it :D

:LOL: I know what you mean - I've tried several strategies & find the old concept of the decanter works best - it is no worse than deciding to open another bottle to just have only 'one more glass', after all ..

- imo the person who invents a wine box with a 'quantity used' facility is on a winner :angel:

Either that or a sliding scale of (in ascending order)

You are now: "at peace with yourself" > "slightly merry" > "getting a taxi home" > "talking crap" > "about to have a fight" > "unconscious" > "dead"

Only 'talking crap' applies, usually - the sliding scale will be relevant to the volume (loudness) of that process - or I may even dance, but that is somewhere beyond the 'unconscious' category ;)
