Racked the small ones

I decided to rack the 1 gallon container, and an extra single bottle we had. Both had lots of sediment. First I racked the 1 gallon into a 3/4 gallon, and into a half bottle. Then I opened the extra bottle. PU! Rotten eggs… I could really smell it. So I went back and checked the 3/4 gallon and both demijohns. Everything smelled and tasted fine. So I tossed the extra bottle. Not worth keeping it! It had a lot of sediment.

Erwin has one bottle he is opening for Christmas. So now this is the tally:

  • 2 14 gal demijohns
  • 1 3 gal carboy
  • 1 3/4 gal jug
  • 1 750 mL bottle
  • 1 375 mL bottle

We need to add 25 ppm SO2.

We also need to do our copper fining experiment. See if it helps; get it done if it does.
