I started a batch using Welch's Grape/Raspberry juice, to which Iusually add 8 oz of sugar. While mixing, I discovered I had only 6oz in the house. I used it, and planned to put in the remaining 2oz of sugar the next day.After shopping, I carefully unscrewed the E-Z Cap and dumped in thesugar, which caused the contents of the bottle to erupt in a geyserof wine. Wine hit the 8 foot high cieling, and a wall 12 feet away.I don't know it there is a proper way to add sugar when your wine isfermenting vigorously, but just dumping it in will cause you tospend the next hour cleaning, and cost you about half your yummywine.SFCORGINAL POSTER: spencercor
