Hello All,
I've started my first kit on sunday. And now have some of my first questions about wine making. It's very interesting watching the temperature go up and down, from 66 degrees and a ramp up to 80 degrees. My question is:
1. Is it important to keep the temp constant I've seen 73 degrees is a good temp to have. Would a brew belt help out with this? Just wondering how others are maintaining a constant temp.
2. If not what is going on in the wine during different temperatures?
and,
I stopped by my local wine/beer store here in Medford Oregon. And the guy there said that there are 4 different alcohols being produced. Each at different temperatures. Does anyone have a chart at to what each alcohol is, and the temp that it is produced at? If not maybe this will be my first challenge to come up with a chart for the forum!
Thanks again
Brian
