Hi guys and gals,
I have some strawberry wine going that I started in the first ferment with the fruit around the 17th of this month. I'm putting it into the secondary fermenter right now. At the time of adding the sugar with the fruit and water, the reading was 1.090. Today, it is at 1.000.
My question is this---is it time to just allow the sediment to fall to the bottom (about a week), then sweeten and bottle? My feeling is that there will quite probably be another ferment to be done to allow more sediment to fall, etc., but theoretically, is the wine finished fermenting?
TIA!
