Okay, it's been only 8 hours but the wine is still murky. Unless a miracle occurs while I'm at work today, I won't be bottling the plumcot (sigh).
On a brighter note, I've learned some things about Sparkalloid and degassing wine. Also, I went through my homebrew stash last night and I still have some small bottles of decent things to bring along for my friends (sparkling mead, cherry melomel, apple wine, blueberry melomel) so all is not lost. Oh - and that little gallon of Ancient Orange I started has been bubbling away all week too, so I learned about that recipe. Happy happy things...
Thanks for all of the tips. If the wine changes while I'm at work I'll post again, otherwise I'm packing for the road trip tomorrow.
Cheers!
