just got some bits and pieces off ebay and there were 6 magnum wine kits in the lot
once i got home and checked all my goodies they were out of date
no mention in the advert, just badly worded rubbish spelling and a few pictures

i was thinking if i just get some of my wine yeast out and open the cans carefully
and see what happens

or should i just accept i was shafted and bung them?

paid £26 for 4 Fv buckets corks, etc etc and these 6 cans :oops:
 
I would imagine that you would only have to replace the yeast. I am sure that whatever is in the cans will be just fine :cheers:
 
Go for it, but out of date cans would definitely dent the feedback score.
 
thank you for the kind offer to "dispose" of them for me

however me and the good lady bunged them into FV the other day

white and rose in with original yeast and all doing nicely

nice dome on the top of the bucket and you can see the tide line of yeasties doing something so all good
