Mlf

[petey]

Considering doing an mLF on my chambourcin. When adding the culture, do you increase amount as you do with yeast? I have 3 tubs ready to press: 600 l, 400 l and 250 l
They will be pressed, racked. And aged individually. I've got lots of reading to do..help

I have only used the packets of bacteria, which say they are good for 66 gallons or about 250 liters. So it looks like you need to add based on amount of wine. I think that is what you are asking.

Yes, thanks.been reading,looks like I can add bacteria after racking when fermentation is complete. Although its a slow and mild process I assume I still Don't want to top off my demijohn
