This is in regard to wine kits. My first batch was a dark red so i did not notice much of what was happening during clearing. I now have a pinot gregio and a Riesling clearing. One is on its 3rd week, just reracked which mixed some things up and i am now clearing again. The second was just started clearing. Both batches were managed on Friday night.
Interesting, about 6 inches from the top is very clear in each carboy, and there is basically a line where it is a litle cloudy in the older batch and very cloudy in the new batch. So it appears wine clears top down. It is almost like there is a cloud of haze floating below they very clear wine. It appear to have went further down from yesterday.
So what is in this haze that is settling? Based on the amount cleared so far, it looks like it will take about 20 days to reach the bottom.
