First, get the book The Home Built Winery. Inside of there, they have a large cabinet/closet that you can build that will help you store your containers in an organized manner, and keep the temp controlled. Then build a crusher and press, and anything else that you think you may need. Don't forget, you're going to need a lot of carboys and/or larger containers that will fit in your storage closet.

I'd want a good pump and a great filter system and a better way to bottle and cork.

As for a kegging set up, you should look at the homebrewing sub-Reddit, they build kegerators all the time. But you're going to have to use something other than CO2, unless you plan on only serving sparkling wine from the kegs.

Edit: I also forgot to mention that if you plan on getting bonded, then you're most likely going to need a sink in the garage.

If you are into native plants Wine from the Wilds is a good book talking about how to make wine from stuff you would find in north american forests. Loads of recipes and plant ID knowledge. My favorite easy to make wine is Strawberry wine. It is hard to find real strawberry wine in stores, so that might be a good starting point.

i use the recipe from the book "home winemakers companion" http://www.amazon.com/The-Home-Winemakers-Companion-Great-Tasting/dp/1580172091 and i'm away from that book right now so can't get you the exact recipe.

most recipes are pretty similar though. you can't go wrong with eckraus recipes, here's one for raspberry which looks really similar to mine: http://www.eckraus.com/winerecipes/raspberrywine.pdf

when using real fruit, i always freeze it first (it breaks down the fruit better) then i thaw it out completely a couple of days in the fridge before starting this recipe. it doesn't hurt to throw a couple more lbs of fruit in this recipe either, better taste

Winemaking: Recipes, Equipment, and Techniques for Making Wine at Home

http://www.amazon.com/Winemaking-Recipes-Equipment-Techniques-Making/dp/0156970953/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1377051471&sr=1-1&keywords=winemaking+stanley+f+anderson

I love this book. It talks about all sorts of equipment, has some troubleshooting guides ("what do I do when....") and has TONS of different recipes for all sorts of crazy fruit wines, as well as grape wines.

I love this book to death. :)

Great book but very dense and technical. Certainly wouldn't call it light reading by any stretch. I also certainly wouldn't even start that text until after reading Cox's "Vines to Wines" and perhaps even David Bird's Understanding Wine Technology

No, I am not degassing beyond your basic punch down. My pH meter is this one, which I did calibrate prior to sampling.

> Expect another drop post press and post mlf.

This is a good point. I plan to press tomorrow, likely, and will give MLF another week or so to complete before sampling. I've got tartaric acid waiting in the wing just in case, but I'll be honest, pH and TA throw me through a loop sometimes. Just one big science experiment in my basement.

A friend who studied Viticulture & Enology at UC Davis once recommended Windows on the World: Complete Wine Course although I haven't gotten a chance to read it myself yet.

Techniques in home winemaking is a good one that walks you through a lot of the basics and some of the science. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1550652362?pc_redir=1405492032&robot_redir=1

Ouch! That hurts, my condolences.

I'd recommend a lab pack drum from from Eagle. Comes in a 14 and 28 gallon size.
