Hey guys, please don't leave me out here... :) Any words of wisdom are always welcomed! luis

I am about to bottle my first batch from fresh juice. I like to age in bottle due to convenience. When i do kits i add 1/4tsp just before bottling to ensure it is covered for copule years Now i am measuring free so2 and would appreciate confirmation as if i need to go higher or if it will be...

I have used before and it came without anything added just refrigerated. Anyways i sent email out asking about this situation to the distributor. So if it was wild, i shall just keep from this point forward or should i add sugar before i get my yeast in place?

I just got a bucket from pardo and it was active fermenting My sg read was 1.05 I immediately put kmeta but would appreciate feedback as if this a lost cause or if i can save it somehow. Thanks Luis

It seems to have worked Can you please check these results and let me know if i finally got there? I understand that i should wait two more weeks to be safe Correct?

Will do, thanks

Here it goes 36hrs chromatography, it seems to have gone almost to the top. Now, regarding Malic acid, I noticed it is very vague now, see picture. But being first time on this, I dont know if this is good now or if I need to take further action. Appreciate the feedback. luis

Overnight? Shall i put more solvent?

Thanks. I have added no SO2, tasting every two weeks to ensure no odd odor/flavors and using inert gas to protect head space. I just measure again, to me it looks better but need some feedback as if this is enough or shall I give two more weeks...or re-pitch again... Another question, why I...

This is the mlf used for repitch

The alcohol is 13%

The ph remains as 3.3

Temp 75-70F Whats ABV?

Im still unclear about my chromatography results and appreciate guidance. I did re-pitch on 6/29 and added opti-malo. Please see attached my chromatography results history. It seems consistent all along on the Malic. The 0716 results have turned bluish over time but were similar to the other two.
