On thanksgiving the bubbling stopped and it seemed like a lot of sediment, so I decided to rack my wine for the first time since starting secondary fermentation in October. Made Zinfandel, kept on the skins during the primary fermentation. I started with a 6 gallon and 5 gallon carboy. I racked to two 5 gallon carboys. wine tasted fine at this time. I did use a little bit of distilled water to top off the second carboy.
My question is the second carboy is not producing some pretty small bubbles, not much but the activity is clear. On the first carboy, the wine seems dead with no activity (which i would expect). What should I do if anything, I am concerned that one has started to ferment again while the other is not. Any help will be appreciated.
