This is my very first batch of wine......so needless to say, it didn't
get off to a perfect start. I racked the wine from the primary
fermenter to the carboy, placed the bung in the opening of the carboy
and attempted to insert the airlock (OK...now I know you place the
airlock in the opening of the bung prior to inserting it in the
opening of the carboy....or the guy at the supply store sold me the
wrong size bung!) Luckily, my neighbor saved the day by loaning me a
new bung. But...the old one is still in the carboy with the
fermenting wine. Will this harm the wine in any way or should I rack
the wine into a new carboy?
