I've just learned a valuable lesson...wine is like motorcycles...if you don't feel good...don't mess with them....
So...here's the story....
First....I apparently didn't have my drill whip in securely....it fell out and is now in the wine (this is a Island Mist Blueberry Pinot).
I figured okay...I'll just rack the wine into another carboy. So...I had a clean carboy sitting around....poured some SO2 into it to sanitize...got distracted and started racking....I forgot to pour out the SO2.
<sigh>
Am I doomed? I had just added #2 & #3 packets and was in the process of degassing and was about to add the F-pack when this all occured.
I'm continuing to rack the wine so I can get the wine whip out of the original carboy.
Any thoughts or suggestions before I toss it?Edited by: bovinewines
