If it's half as smelly as that was make sure its in a well ventilated area.



its brewing in the basement now. Have you experienced any bottle breaking when bottling your wine? Just curious i heard something, that sometimes bottles will explode?



a bottle bursting is possible if you bottle an underattenuated beer, use an excess amount of priming sugar (that is if you are bottle conditioning and not force carbonating and bottling with a counter pressure filler), or if a serious infection of lactobacillus or a super attenuative wild yeast like brettanomyces...all of the above could reasonably generated enough CO2 pressure to cause a regular beer bottle to explode. that being said, if you managed to fuck up that hard, i suggest you give it up permenantly.

there was a kegger saturday night round these parts that had 6 kegs, 2 were molson canadian, the other 4 were the host's nephew's own brew dubbed 'fuusa', tastes like shit though, i'm not a big fan of homebrews since not many people do it right.
