Today I did something I have been meaning to, and putting off. Doing an inventory of my cellar. I had been keeping a spreadsheet, but I have gotten lazy about keeping it up to date. My son came down into the downstairs area while I was diligently weighing my mason jars with their contents, counting tins and packages, and recording it. His comment was that I looked like an obsessed and crazed drug dealer checking his inventory. Well he was half right.
What an eye opening task. I always had an idea of what I had, but not concretely. I found several tins and blends I had forgotten about, and found I don't need to order some bulks anytime soon. I am putting the results into a new updated spreadsheet, and I have to admit my accelerated cellaring has been productive. I project that another year or so at this rate, and I will be sitting pretty good if things go bad.
How often do you all check the cellar? Keep a detailed log of contents?
