We started our first wine last Sunday morning, around 10:00am. Followed the instructions that came with the juice (MM Kit) and the instructions that George provided.
We placed the Primary in a room that has had pretty stable temperature (high of 76.7 and low of 69.9). Within the first 8 hours started to notice some bubbling. Yeah! Within 24 hours, a nice foam across the top and plenty of bubbling and popping.
Now at 48 hours, we see that the layer of foam has pretty much disapated and the activity seems to have lessened. Room temp this morning was at 69.9.
Has the activity slowed becasue of temperature or could it be that the majority of the fermentation has been completed?
We are just not sure as to what is supposed to be happening at this stage.
