The Home Cellar Planner
The BinkWines workbook for sizing a wine fridge, rack or cellar to the way you actually drink
Wine storage gets bought backwards: a fridge chosen by the number on its label, a rack by the wall it fits. The Home Cellar Planner starts with the question before those. How many bottles you need to store is how fast you drink, times how long you keep them: two bottles a week kept a year is about a hundred. Part 1 counts your drink rate by kind of bottle, works out what you will hold, counts a rack both ways (a 36 x 72 in rack holds 288 slim bottles in a square grid and 311 staggered, and fewer wide Burgundy or sparkling bottles), checks a fridge's label against your widest bottle, chooses where it lives, and costs a bottle-year. Part 2 keeps a ledger with drink windows, buys at the rate you drink, and audits once a year. No investment or health claims. With your purchase comes a personalised sheet worked on the rack and bottles you enter in the BinkWines calculators.
