Was speaking with someone who said they always take their secondary and give it a good swirl once or twice a day. This moves all the contents around and keeps everything mixed. I was a little confused by this but they're been making wine for years now. I've never seen it mentioned on here and seems to me that you'd just be stirring up the lees, wouldn't you? Stir daily in the primary but then I thought after that you would want to disturb it as little as possible.....well, other than when you've racked and are degassing before bulk aging. Do people usually keep their secondary stirred and mixed?
