@hailbopp Aaah now I see the full glory (hideousness... if that's a word). I agree cut off the uprights put hinges on the roof and make some sort of storage box out of it. A dark stain so it "dissappears" into the background.

I did mine a little differently - I cheated sorta. I washed the beets but did not peel them. Then I pressure cooked the beets using a bit more water in the bottom of the cooker than usual. That literally "sweated out" a lot of colour and taste. After straining off the juice to use for the wine,...
