Bava Metzia 40: Rav Yehudah's profit

Meir Eliezer Bergman asked:

In the story of Rav Yehuda (40a-40b), I wonder if you could just clarify

1) what exactly did Rav Yehuda buy and sell, and

2) how are the Shemarim a profit (did he use/sell them separately, or were they 
mixed etc)

Thank You,
Meir Eliezer Bergman, Manchester UK

The Kollel replies:

1) Rav Yehudah bought barrels of wine. This included the barrel itself as well 
as the wine and sediment inside the barrel.

2) He sold clear wine, in other words without the sediment and then he either 
sold the sediment separately, or he used to make wine and then sold the wine. 
See Tosfos Avodah Zara 34a DH Dordia who learns that the sediment of Rav 
Yehudah was used for making wine.
