I currently have a wine fermenting in my basement that I was not sure if it was fermenting since there was no activity in the airlock, but i did smell the sourdough bread aroma that comes from wine yeast. I went to the store and picked up another packet of yeast, rehydrated, and pitched. This wine is definately fermenting but there is absolutley no activity in the air lock and the bucket and lid seems to be swelling. Before you ask, I checked twice that i didnt have a plugged airlock. The wine is sitting 4 in below the lid. Anyone have this happen? It just seems physically impossible for this to happen.
