Wise move ..
My copy of CJJ is a paperback edition I bought in 1974 ... still going strong but held together with a variety of sticky substances ... some intentional, some not so intentional ... I think eventually it will be worthy of boiling up to make a nice full bodied dessert wine !
One of my favourites is his receipe for peach wine 'Peach Perfection' found in the August Section ... it's a really high alcohol content (18%) dessert wine and is a bit on the sweet full bodied side. I've heard that some naughty people have been known to put a gallon in a plastic bottle into the freezer, freeze off the water content and then use the resultant more concentrated alcohol to 'fortify' the rest of the brew ... sort of a peach sherry a bit reminiscent of Madeira. Of course, as a law abiding citizen, I would not dream of doing something illegal like distilling by 'any' means - including freezing.....
The one recipe I would avoid like the plague is his Parsniip Sherry (November section) - four years on and it's still undrinkable ... not sure it will EVER be drinkable ... might use it as drain cleaner.
My other major failure was coffee wine ... It redecorated the airing cupboard and most of the freshly laundered contents when I put it in the demijon a bit too early and the airlock provided a high pressure escape route for about half a gallon of dark brown goo ... the remaining wine, even when fully fermented and left for years and years, remained completely undrinkable (bitter beyond anything anyone's taste buds could accommodate) until it finally got consigned to drain cleaning duties ...
I won't go into the domestic disharmony that this and numerous other home brew adventures (or more accurately misadventures !) have caused .... but I would suggest that finding somewhere other than the airing cupboard for your fermentations is probably a good idea.
