Thank you!! This is really good, how do you measure brix of grapes on a vine? Just squeeze a grape on the little tester?

But other than that, i can just pick the grapes, wash them then put in the bag just like dragon's blood?

I racked it yesterday to a carboy and didn't have enough wine to fill it up to the tip, the neck is open to air and it's sitting at the top ridge on the carboy. Is this okay?
