You know what I did a couple weeks ago?? I was sampling my cider, and I got a little ****ty. When I put my bung back on I pushed too hard and it went dropped into the carboy, into my cider and sunk to the bottom. Sploosh. Is there any way to get it out?? I have a feeling that bung will be in that carboy forever.
Second issue: I'm bulk aging my cider in a glass carboy (the one with the rubber bung in it). My cider is clearing, but there's a ton of sediment at the bottom. Is it normal to bulk age with a thick layer of lees at the bottom like that? I added potassium sulfites a few days ago and backsweetened with some concentrate. Should I rack again or is this okay?
