Adding Sugar? Beware!

[yahoo]

I started a batch using Welch's Grape/Raspberry juice, to which I
usually add 8 oz of sugar. While mixing, I discovered I had only 6
oz in the house. I used it, and planned to put in the remaining 2
oz of sugar the next day.

After shopping, I carefully unscrewed the E-Z Cap and dumped in the
sugar, which caused the contents of the bottle to erupt in a geyser
of wine. Wine hit the 8 foot high cieling, and a wall 12 feet away.

I don't know it there is a proper way to add sugar when your wine is
fermenting vigorously, but just dumping it in will cause you to
spend the next hour cleaning, and cost you about half your yummy
wine.
