Hello.
I had a couple of questions about bottling. I'm using: manual handheld corker, natural carks, reusing empty commercial wine bottles of different sizes, color and shapes.
Some of this questions might be stupid, but I just must ask.
-Is it like different diameter on commercial wine bottles or do they follow a standard?
-Is it a problem that I get the cork only halfway in or to far in?
-Is it a problem if I get some sediment into the bottles when I rack?
-bottle storage temperature?
-I just started to use this small demijohns gallon carboys a couple of months ago, so I was wondering if I do I use siphoning equipment with this small carboys to or just pour over without/(or minimally) splashing the wine?
-Can I go directly from primary ferment into bottles?
Thanks
