Hello:
I'm brewing my first batch of wine. I'm usingMosti Mondiale Petite Syrah and things are going okay - I guess. I used a brew belt to keep the must in the primary fermentation bucket at 76 degrees. That worked great - maybe too great. The SG dropped to 1.030 in only 3 days. Now I've racked to my secondary - a better boy carboy. Should I keep the brew belt on the secondary to keep it warm?
