I think my apple cider wine has too much acid in it. It is at an SG on 0.994 today so I racked it from the primary to the secondary. I did an acid test on it. If I did it right it is sitting at 9.0%. So my questions are:
1: is this too much acid
2: if it is should I be concerned now or later
3: while shopping for groceries yesterday I had Tums on my list. I noticed that it has calcuim carbonate as the primary ingredient. Can I just crush a tablet or two and add that to the wine to help deacidify my wine if I need to? The non-medicinal ingredients is corn starch, mineral oil, natural oil, natural flavour, sodium hexametphospate,sucrose, talc.low sodium.
