  • Ah
    Schoolboy error
    Used brown sugar
    It’ll be ok
    Just a bit more ‘rose’ than ‘brut’ lol
    It’s quite lively already, only been in the bottles for two hours, definitely need to burp it twice a day for a bit
    Going to make some more with white sugar next

  • Eek! Ideally you want that in airlocked demijohns until it has finished fermenting. You’re going to be quite busy letting the gas out of those - make sure you do it every couple of hours in the first week or so or you might have a few explosions!

  • Lol, burping like newborns right now, might have to put the in the fridge so it all calms down a bit!

  • Yeah, we use 2l plastic bottles from wherever sells the cheapest sparkling water at the time. You can see the bottles expand and they have some give in them so you can release the pressure. Even so we’ve had the odd explosion over the years - I wouldn’t recommend using glass bottles.
