Too cold…
7:15 Punchdown: Everything still going fine.
Must at 70 F. I will pick up a radiant space heater today, and see if I can use that to warm the must. This fermentation is ending up like a white fermentation…pretty cold. That should give us a nice fruity wine. But we won’t get the color extraction we need unless we get up into the 80’s.
Where is that sun when you need it! No Sun coming for a few days.
excellent, sounds like the fermentation is going pretty good. great idea on the space heater. i’ll split the cost with you.
