oops bunged up

[Scaff]

i didnt realise that some djs had a bigger opening than others,

bottled off some wine to djs, gave the bungs a thump and this happened

it wont budge, ive tried levering it but theres nothing to get hold of.

any ideas, other than a corkscrew

2 forks dig it in the sides and pull

Screw a screw in but not far enough that it comes out of the bottom.

both excellent ideas, but for future what can i do, chuck the dj or widen the bung {drill a hole 3/4 of the way down and inset a plastic rod to push its shape out }

You can always buy a larger size bung, type rubber bung into ebay and there are a lot of different sizes available for scientific stuff.

I have a DJ which fits just the same as this. Next time, don't use a solid bung - fit a bubbler airlock. Then, when you need to remove it, ease in a thin blade knife and apply a little sidewards pressure to the bubbler.

I've always found rubber bungs pass on a really bad smell to homemade wines. Wouldn't touch them with a barge-pole...:lol:
