hello again.
I have just transferred my blackberry wine into my demijohn and wondered as i have managed to have about another 3rd of a demijohn left over in another one, what would happen if i went out today and started another blackberry wine off to be put in a demijohn in a weeks time or even another type of wine, is it possible to add together the bits that i have left over to fill the half empty demijohn ( or at least add together into a new clean one) I hate the thought of just throwing away that bit of spare potential wine juice. With my elderberry i managed to find a glass bottle just big enough to take the left over bit and fitted an air lock to that. But i have no more bottles that fit a bung so ive had to use a demijohn. If i remember correctly wine has more chance of going off if there is a large proportion of air in the demijohn or please tell me otherwise. its all an experiment with the bits left over so do i keep them separate or make a heinze 57, which method has got more chance of working. a small amount in a demi or a full demi with a mix?
