My Vint select Merlot kit says to wait till the SG is 1.01 or lower before racking to carboy. Mine at 4 days checked at 1.025. If I check it today or tommorow it will probably be at the 1.01 or lower mark. My question is, can I let it sit longer in primary trying to get the SG as low as it might get? The directions say 5-7 days. It is percolating just fine I guess, this being my first experience and all. Are there any plusses or minus's to letting it go longer or racking right at the top end of thecompany directions of 1.01?
