Hello, I'm currently on my first batch, a cabernet sauvignon kit from Wine Maker's Choice. I started on the 5th with a SG of 1.090 and temp has been steady 68-73deg. On the 5th day, I racked it into a carboy when the SG was 1.014. Today is day 9, and I checked thrice, it's already 0.990! According to my kit directions it should be at 1.000 5-10 days from the first racking.
Anyways, I'm wondering, is this unusual? I'm already at the "day 21" finishing/clearing phase at day 9. I've checked my hydrometer 3 times, I've even tasted some(of course) and its a bit bitter, but alcoholly!
Is there something I may have done right/wrong for it to finish so quick?
By the way, the yeast I'm using is Lalvin EC-1118
