Is this still for sale?

Hello is the c/d still for sale?

I don’t use the spigot. I use the free run mesh tube available at all in one wine pump and the pump to siphon out free run before I press

All good points brought up here I will keep you posted as time goes on and I do some racking and Tasting post MLF.

I also plan to put it thru Malolactic and then barrel age it dont plan on drinking it for a couple more years. I still have all Of the 2020 edition and some more 2018 that I’m consuming.

I’m hoping it does turn out okay. The main reason I added it besides the ph being high was the sweetness I did a taste test. I realize now that it still can have high TA being so sweet. Also given the size if the batch I didn’t think it was such a large addition of Tartaric.

ok thanks

I’m confused can’t you also use the .01 since it gets factored into the calculation?

Thanks I just watched a good video on you tube the home wine making channel. He explained that you can use a ph meter to check the total acid . I have some new Sodium Hydroxide .01 and some .1 that i tried to do the color change test but for some reason didn’t work so Im going to give it a try...

Hello, I was thinking of adding this testing kit sold on more wine MT 140 Economy Aeration-Oxidation Free SO2 Test Kit | MoreWine Do any of you use it and what can you tell me is it worth it? Also, says that kit supplies you with enough chemicals to do 2-3 tests. I would probably need to do...

The wine that I in the barrels was in from 2018 and was in carboys until i moved To the barrels in 2019. The barrel I believe is probably neutral now. I filled with water and added K meta with citric acid I will drain once im ready to add the 2020 wine i made but that wont be for a while since...

So i just took the wine out fill it with water and add some Potassium sulfite / citric acid solution. Store it that way right? Not sure what you mean by neutral? I usually burn the sulfur stick in it.

Hi everyone out there in the wine making world. Hope everyone and their loved ones are all safe and healthy. Was wondering what everyone does as far as barrel maintenance once they rack wine out of their barrel. I was thinking i would just run some water through it and let it dry for now till im...
