Well, if youre looking to do a lot of different variaties of a base
wine later on, then the jugs might be the way to go. That way you can
add oak to some, carbonate others, add fruit to the rest, etc. They do
take a lot of space though. I'm pretty much the only one who drinks my
wine, so I do 1 gal primary and change up the recipe for each gal so
they're a little different, then I can choose which one I like the
best and make bigger batches.
