    These are the caps used on the large bottles of water sold by many vendors. They fit glass
    carboys but would be too small for a better bottle - I think they take something like a number
    11 bung vs a n...

    An alternative to the cork stoppers suggested by John would be water bottle caps (the 5 gal
    bottles). I use these on my empty carboys when they are sitting with kmeta in them. They seal
    well and are u...

    Great to hear that brunello finally made it! This time next week I'll be up near Venice tasting
    some barolo. Verona a few days later for sure sampling some Amarone. The agriturismo, where
    we're stayin...

    does that cork taint occur with synthetic corks as well?No, synthetics are not subject to cork

    I've been using synthnetics for about 10 years now with my Portuguese corker and have had no
    problems. I use Nomacorcs and recommend you get these if you can.

    Good stuff, Wiccan - sounds like you made a believer out of yourself as well. Don't you just
    love it when a plan comes together!!

    Thanks, Robie - good information.

    Just out of curiosity would the results from doing MLF on the Chardonnay be much different than
    doing batonnage on it?

    I think many of us are like that these days. I blame it on the digital age. Years ago in the
    good old analog days, my wife would ask me what the temperature was outside and I would say it
    was about 15...

    Ah, math doesn't lie. Thanks for the explanation - makes perfect sense. No, I haven't tried
    blending. I generally make kits that are already blended as opposed to varietals and since my
    production is ...
