No biggie I don't reckon. I only have 1 vessel that's glass and over 5 gallons.. So I will just have to rack from my "Wine" secondary which is also my primary fermenter for beer. I fermented the wine originally in a 7.9 gal bucket but I bought it specifically for the wine.

Hey Guys,
I'm fixing to bottle my first batch of wine. Vinters Reserve Pinot Gris. I was going to add 1/2 tsp. of the metabisulfite to help w/ oxidation as advised in my kit. I believe it says to dissolve it in water before adding. Do I need to add it to water or can I just add it directly...

Thanks Guys. Yeah I got the gravity readings covered as I'm a beer brewer already. Tho I'd love to get a refractometer to replace the traditional spinny mabobber... I'm gonna give it some stirs w/ my degasser this evening I reckon before I bottle my Golden Palisades IPA?
Then I guess just...
