Done, maybe

Another malic test

It showed 120 mg/L malic, slightly up from last time. So the MLF is now officialy stuck

We decided to take a sample from each barrel to Beverage People, and use their reflectoquant test.

  • 30 gallon:   14.2 mg/L
  • 15 gallon:   16.4 mg/L
  • 13 gallon:   20.3 mg/L

By these tests we are done…30 mg/L is the target. Vinquiry doesn’t quite match.

So we are either done, or close to done. We are going to call it done. What does “done” mean anyways?

So now add sulphites (30 ppm):

  • 30 gallon: 59 mL 10% SO2 solution
  • 15 gallon:  30 mL 10% SO2 solution
  • 13 galon: 26 mL 10% SO2 solution
