Oh boy, newbie wine maker needs advice........
I'm on my second batch of wine, this time I add a brew belt to the primary since my room temps are 62 - 63. The activity in the airlock is like an old time perculator. Multiple bubbles per second.
Now I'm wondering did I goof up my first batch. The activity in the airlock was not nearly as agressive (probably 1-2 bubbles per second) as compared to the 2nd batch with brew belt.
The first wine was a WE Vintners Reserve Merlot. The SG levels where met before racking and clearing and degassing.
The second wine is a WE Selection Rosa Luna.
