I can't get lallezyme ex in time...I will be starting fermentation today--adding yeast. Can I add lallezyme a day after the yeast? Is there something I can use in place of it like peptic enzyme?

The local winemaker/vineyard owner I get some of my Fall grapes from uses pectic enzyme. Probably better than using nothing if you can't get the Lallzyme EX. I think they suggest adding yeast after a period of time when using the Lallzyme.

Edit: I was sort of right... add to must with your other additions prior to the onset of fermentation.
