Got my last shipment from bosagrapes for the year, got my mlf, french oak, twin corks, fermaid o, more chromatography solution and paper, and opti-red, one thing, first year doing real grapes is an expensive one going from kits having to buy the press, crusher, larger fermenters, ect. So im trying to do alot of batches to make it worth my while, im now up to 680lbs of grapes as of today.
My question is about opti-red, never used it but ive seen lots of you using it so i ordered some, im having trouble figuring out the dosage. Does anyone know how many grams per liter? Do i add right after crush? Or wait 24 hours when i pitch the yeast? Is it some sort of subsitute for a pectic enzyme or do i do a regular dose of that too?
