re: About to bottle my first batch of wine

If you want high carbonation like champagne, add the sugar. The yeast will eat the sugar and fart out Co2.......carbonation. But, regular wine bottles are not strong enough to handle the pressure from the extra carbonation. At this point, if you want to bottle now, and all you have are wine bottles, don't add the sugar and prey most of the sugar from the grape juice has mostly fermented completely. I would cover the bottles with a blanket so if they blow, glass doesn't fly everywhere..........or not. ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/IconLOL.gif)

It's been fermenting for 3 months. In the beginning I could watch the air locks bubble but that has been over for quite some time. Does this mean I'm safe?
