It was muscadine wine I had made the prior year.The color change is not offensive it is color of a almost finished red muscadine wine.I have not checked the SG but I will.There are no bubbles in the airlock though.

Took 12 gallons of muscadine wine all primary fermented toegether in 3 6 gallon buckets all tested same in acidity and SG syphoned in 4 3 gallon carboys first 3 all doing well last one it took almost a quart of finished wine to top off the carboy.First 3 doing great the 1 finished with a quart...

I'm sure I'll add water I generally do I think I'll be ok with 22-23 lbs.per primary.Thanks LCW

thanks I have 63 lbs.and was thinking about going 21lbs to the 3 buckets I have.LCW

In a 6 gallon bucket fermenter how many lbs.of muscadines in a strainer bag would you feel safe with so you would have adequate space?LCW

If I go with the 6 gal.fermenters how many lbs.of muscadines would be best to put in each bucket allowing enough space for the cap?LCW

Thanks all.LCW

Would you try to do the 62 lbs.of muscadines in one fermenter or split them up?LCW

I have 63 lbs.of muscatines and 42 lbs.of seyval blanc.The fermenters I have are 6 gallon size.My question what size fernenters do I need to do a good job.Will doing insmall batches work ?LCW
