started a 13%+ PA sugar wine a month ago--it has been fermentin actively. When the sg reached 1.020 i switched to my close range hydrometer. The fermenting is very slow now-- it is tetering around 1.020 or a little less. I gave it a dose of energizer last night--the sg is a hair less than 1.020...

I was just wondering if a partial treatment of 5.2 would produce predictable results. I already have the tools and chemicals to adjust ph up or down. i was basically looking for an easier way. All under controll now ok thanks.

thats what i needed to know. thanks. I have been reading a few papers written on how to make various buffers wit various chemicals it is an interesting subject. Thanks all who replyed.

I think i will just experiment for myself basically i was wondering if i added for example 1/2 the amount of 5.2 buffer recomended for one gallon of water that was at 7 ph would the result be about 5.2 + 7 =12.2 divided by 2 = prox 6.2

I have some 5.2 buffer in my collection. My water is 7.2. before i experiment can any one tell me if using less than the recomended amount of 5.2 will give me a ph somewhere on between 7.2 and 5.2

Do you mean like my eyebrows????

I have a few concavityslides that i will use for that as soon as i learn how not to destroy my new scope.

I would like to hear at what point you added the 5 campden tabs (before, after or along with what)) i asume you made a 5 gallon batch.

With practicing and using the lowest power first i am actually able to focus all 5 of the provided prepared slides. Now i need to know if i must use oil with the oil imersion 100x lense. I havent even tried that one yet. This company must asume that folks know how to operate the scope...

Yes Joan. 4 lenses. I do start with the 4x one first. I think i was doing it the wrong way. A book said to try focusing as i bring the lense closer. That seems to be the answer and i believe that the 4 factory prepared slides may be chinese rejects. Ill keep trying and boy am i glad i...
