Alright, All of the wine is still under airlock. I will rack the reds in November and but them under solid bung assuming MLF is finished or mostly finished. The whites will all go under Solid bung the next time I go to the LHBS.
In about a week, once the malo has started to run I will give the reds about 20-30PPM dose of sulfites, they have not been sulfited since the onset of fermentation. Hopefully this will be enough to protect the wine and still allow malo to continue.
Thank you for quelling my fears.
If you sulfite while your mlb hasn’t finished it’s job, you run the risk of killing it off. Most folks avoid sulfites until MLF is confirmed complete.
