Hello,
I had posted a few days ago about what I thought was “flowers” in my wine during secondary. I listened to the advice and added some k-meta and racked, cleaned, sanitized etc.
I’m still curious to know if anyone can help me identify what is in the picture. Thankfully the wine in not impacted and tasted wonderful.
The home brew store near me (extremely nice and knowledgeable) couldn’t identify which makes me even more curious.
This is in 4 out of 14 carboys - all 2 months old - been racked once and before this no additives minus yeast. Everything was new and cleaned and sanitized with one step and star San before use. Valpolicella and some Pinot N were impacted. Note, I did top off with the valp so I’m assuming it may have originated from there. (Not certain)
Thank you in advance!
Eric
