for merlot. Also, where can I get it.
I am having second thoughts. One hundred plus dollars to do 6 gallons just does not seem to be worth it for me at this time.
Another near seventy dollars for a chromotography test kit. I realize you can use them often.
I have had very good luck with Viniflora Eonos Malolactic culture.
This is a freeze dried MLB that is meant for direct inoculation (no messing about, just add directly to your wine). This is about $17 for a dose that will do 60 gals. Just keep in the freezer until needed. Lasts about a year.
is that the only mlb you use exclusively?
And have you tried saving the unused content of the open package after sitting in the freezer?
I would not expect that amount of k meta to cause you problems, particularly if you fermented in an poem bucket, it is all now gone away.
I have toyed about with many other strains/types and have to say that I have found this to be the best. I like the smoothness it brings to my wine and the ease in the way it is handled.
I have never saved an open packet. I use the entire packet even if it means that I have to add more than the recommended dose. I do my purchasing for an entire year in the fall just before crush. I order a couple extra packets that I keep in the freezer for 6 months or so for the Chilean crush.
The only hassle is that have to ship it to you within 24 hours. I comes packed in an insulated box with freezer packs to keep it frozen. When you order, you need to be home the next day to get them into the freezer as quickly as possible.
