After squeezing the first batch of grapes, there was a whole bag full of seeds, husks and goo left behind. It's compostable. So I figured I'd just put it through the disposal to get rid of it.Why couldn't I have just thrown it in the trash like a normal person? Hmmmmm?
In no time, the grape leftovers clogged the drain... and, it turns out, the pipes. Packed solid. No amount of plungering was going to dislodge this stuff. It's in there good.
Then the pipe from the disposal let loose. Black crap everywhere. The entire inside of the cabinet was covered in gross, smelly, gunk. Ewwwww.
I took the pipes apart under the sink. Dug out the grape remnants. Put it all back together again. Still clogged. It's farther down the system than what's under the sink.
A full bottle of Draino hasn't been able to unclog it. Yet.
The kitchen is a wreck. And, unfortunately, it's going to have to stay that way until tomorrow afternoon. I can deal with it again after work.
Why are these things never easy? Oy.
