I just purchased a transfer pump made by the Vintage Shop. Used it for the first time and was suprised at the amount of air it produces on the outlet side. The wine was very airieated and almost foamy. Lots of bubbles coming through the outlet tube along with the wine.
I spoke with the guy I bought it from and he says it normal. To me it just doesn't make since. We work hard throughout the winemaking process to keep oxygen out of our wines so why would one freely and willingly pump air into the batch?
anyone have any knowledge or experience with this pump?
