Wine noob
« on: November 09, 2016, 09:32:37 am »
I have 2 batches of wine in secondary that have reached my desired final gravity. What is best method to stabilize before a tertiary for clarification? Both were fermented in mid 70s per manufacturer specs. I have now dropped temp controller to 55 to aid in this. What's next?

Hello? Tapatalk tells me that there is one reply to my request, but I can't see it. Does anyone have any advice for me on this?

And yes, it said one reply, before I, myself, replied?

Since nobody has responded, I'm going to say metabisulfite.  Don't ask me how much.

I put in 100 ppm of SO2. 1/4 teaspoon in 5 gallons will give you about 50 ppm.

I've had Tapatalk do this to me too. I think it's a glitch in the latest version.
