A few days ago I made pineapple wine from a very old and basic recipe. I only added water sugar, and yeast, and pineapple. that was 4 days ago. I just tested it and the hydrometer shows 1.020 ( way up at the top in the beer section) so I checked the alchol content , and its over 15% , my friend doesn't believe me so we checked his store bought bottle of wine which is 7.5% and got a reading of 7.5, anyway I just drank a cup full and feel tipsy. So my question is ,can I bottle it right now and go no farther ? This is delicious sweet wine with a good kick.I'm happy to stop and keep it exactly as it now is. My recipe says leave it 30 days , but why leave it longer when its perfect now?
What do I need to do to stop it fermenting right now? I still have bubbles coming from the airlock.
Another question is what if I bottle it in champaign special strong bottles and wire the plastic stopped in ,would it all gush out when opened ?
