I accidentally pushed a rubber bung into my wine (the bung is only just big enough, but fits). It's the old orange/pink colour rubber. and they smell very "rubbery" I was swapping the tube for an airlock and pushed it in too hard, it was sanitised and just slipped in.
I only started it 3 days ago so it's a while before I was planning on transferring it to a secondary demijohn. What do you guys think I should do? Will the rubber break down or make the wine taste of rubber? It's fermenting like crazy at the moment, should I try to transfer it now? I guess there's a lot of unfermented sugar at the bottom?
HELP!
Thanks
