This is my first attempt at wine making and I have been trying to follow the instructions step by step but still have questions. I started the Merlot on Oct 7 (SG was 1.085), I racked from primary fermenter into the carboy and added all chemicals (sulphite, potassium sorbate,kieselsol and chitosan) on Oct 20 (SG was .996). I racked and put back into carboy on Oct 30. My instructions say let wine stand until day 28, bottle and cork. The wine making shop sold me a bottle of Campden Tablets. The instructions do not address the use of the Camoden Tablets. When do I use them? How many tablets for the 6 gallon carboy? How many times should I rack? How long should I wait until I bottle? How long should I let age? HELP!!!!
