For those who ask about the wine:

Carrot Wine 
6 lbs (3Kg) carrots
2kg Brewing sugar
1 lb (500g) wheat
1 tbl sp chopped raisins
2 oranges
2 lemons
7 pts (4L) water
Wine yeast
 
Scrub but do not peel the carrots. Place them in 7 pints of water and bring to boil, simmering gently until tender (about 25-30 minutes). Meanwhile, put half the sugar in primary. Slice the oranges and lemons into thin slices and arrange on top of sugar. When carrots are done, strain them, pouring the water over the sugar and citrus. Stir to dissolve sugar and allow to cool to lukewarm. Add chopped raisins and wheat and sprinkle wine yeast over top. Cover and set aside, stirring daily. After 6 days add remainder of sugar and stir well to dissolve. Ferment additional 8 days, stirring daily. Strain liquid into secondary and fit airlock. Rack after 30 days and again 30 days later. Bottle and taste after 1 year.
