So I thought to myself, I will sling the wine down the sink (it is just some Italian stuff and at that price for 5 litres I doubt I will be going mental for it) and hey presto I have a carboy!
5 litres isn't a big batch, but I think it is just about right for a first stab at this.
So next up is sourcing the ingredients.....
