My grandpa used to make wine in big barrels and he wouldn't cover them during fermentation. He'd let them ferment for two weeks and then age them in demi-johns. I make homemade wine by the bottle, so should I put a balloon over the bottles right away for fermentation or not? If it keeps the oxygen out, would I wait to put them on? I started a few bottles last night, and they're uncovered...should I just leave them? Thanks so much!
