Hi Guys,
Apologies if this is in the wrong thread!
I've got 1 gallon of AOM thats been in a demi since November 2009 that i havent touched yet. I've been trying to be patient and take JTFB's advice to see if it will really be "somehting special"!
Anyway, i need to free up the demi now and i was wondering if anyone uses 750ml swing top bottles to store stuff? Yes, most people will groan and say "why not normal wine bottles, with corks in!". Answer is, i dunno - i just feel like putting it in swing tops. Cant remember if i actually "stopped" the fermentation or not. I used bread yeast (followed the recipe to the letter), so perhaps my thinking is that i may get a very slight frizz out of it (similar to an Alborino, perhaps?). I'm not that keen on medium/sweet wines, so any frizz and then a good chilling in the fridge might smooth it out for me. Hence, i suppose, not storing it in normal wine bottles and wathcing it cork-op all over the shop!
I digress. . . .Does anyone know where i can get hold of cheap 750ml swing top bottles? The cheepest i've seen online were £1.96 each, with postage at about £7.95 for the lot . . . Any ideas peeps?
