Last year I had a batch of 30 liter dandelion must.
It was cold-soaking when it went south......
I had to toss it all (made from 4500 dandelions........)

Year before I was still thinking Kiwi's could make a good
wine. So for the second year in a row I had to toss 10 liter
kiwi wine (man it was filthy).
Once I made a rice wine. It smelled so bad afther a few weeks
that I did not dare to let it go further. So I tossed that also.
That was just 5 liter.
Come on guys, I never worry one night over it. It is just a hobby.
It is not paying my bills. So things can and may go wrong. You can learn from that.
We can do things no professional winemaker can,as he would loose his income from mistakes.
