So I just put the kid on my 6 gallons of wine yesterday and opened it today to stir and found small white clumps of bacteria on the surface of my red wine. When I inserted the sampler I also got about an inch of small granules from the bottom that I don't remember getting yesterday, but
I am thinking this May be the bentonite that has expanded. Does that sound right?
Either way, I have what appears to be the start of a bacterial infection and I would like to get rid of it immediately because I read that this can ruin my wine . I heard of filtering it but does this matter since it would clearly also remove the bentonite? Also my wine is only on it's third day. Please give details on what I should do because I am having issues finding solutions and since this is my first creation of wine I don't know specific products to use, etc. Thank you for your time and I hope to hear back from someone more knowledgeable than me!!
