My son and I have started to embark on a winemaking mission. We have dove right in and have 4 batches started. Two reds and two whites. We bought the wine kits from our local homebrew / wine store and decided to buy the best kits we could get our hands on (Selection International and Grand Cru). Things are going well and we have read tons of info in these forums and read several publications.
My question is in regards to measuring and adding sulfites. I have watched the following video (found on this forum);

The video seems to state that you can calculate the amount of sulfites required by measuring the PH. Is this true? If so, it seems a much better way than paying $250 for a sulfite tester or attempting to use strips which are not reliable (especially on reds).
Any help would be appreciated - Thx.
