> but a "cheater's method" involves chilling the bottles to near freezing before final bottling. < Some bottlers actually freeze the bottle necks, remove the hollow plastic cork (which has the dead yeast in) and re-cork after adding sugar water. I try to judge the fermentation so I can bottle clear wine and still have secondary fermentation. I could use a hydrometer but its more fun my way as I like the danger. Chris.

> chris l., i assure you i was not mistaken. wiring down the cork is no guarantee. even if it holds the cork, the bottle itself might explode. < They sure do go off with a bang, I've lost gallons over the last 30 years due to getting the fermentation wrong when making sparkling Perry.
