I am using white wine kit for Pinot Grigio wine. I just finished fermentation, moved wine from carboy to another carboy (all dirt stayed behind in old carboy), added metabisulphite and sorbate and now doing de-gassing. Instructions says that I have to de-gas wine for 24 hours (stir hard 6 times), then proceed to add "Chitosan". So last night I de-gas wine and this morning when I checked carboy I saw that my wine was much clearer than yesterday and there was a lot of sediment at the bottom of carboy. I was very surprised about this sediment, so I have a question - should I move my wine to another carboy and leave sediment behind before adding Chitosan (for clearing), or just follow instructions and this sediment is normal?
This is my first wine kit, so I am not sure how to proceed with this.
TIA!
