The wife gave me the ok to buy some wine making supplies and make some wine. I have been making beer for a while.
I have a bucket that is marked for 5 gallons, it says 6 is the bottom ridge of the top of the bucket. My question is: I see where they say to buy an 8 gallon bucket. But mine would be able to hold a 6 gallon recipe with maybe 2 inches on top of space when the lid is on. Do I need to buy an 8 gallon bucket? or would my bucket work ok?
If I buy a wine kit, can it sit around for a month or two as I collect bottles? Or does it need to made quickly?
Anyone have any ideas on how I can collect 30 bottles quickly?
