37 gallons of Petite Syrah.. Right after crush pH was 3.39, bumped it up but overshot my goal of 3.6, and landed on 3.66.. I do not check for TA.. I always MLF my wines, and for some reason i wasn't thinking at crush time and I raised my pH pre fermentation, forgetting that MLF would have raised it naturally to my target range.. Fermentaion is complete, I have pressed, and will be rackin off gross lees tomorrow..Should I lower it now to 3.5 and start MLF or wait to see where it lands after MLF and lower it then if need be.. also how many tsp/gal of tartaric to lower pH by .1? thanks
