my dad used to make the stuff. he always made it for maximum alcohol content. I use to sneak a qt out of the basement (cool down there) once in a while, when I was a teenager, would knock me on my a$$ almost. he had a few explode, seems to have been a common problem. The Bible says don`t put new wine in old bottles ---LOL new , used one time qt beer bottles held up better than used screw top wine bottles too. the stuff never did taste as good to me as store bought . don`t drink the stuff anymore tho!
