Picked my muscat today, got 350 LBS!
I've never gotten more than 250 before. Last year was more like 100.
Destemmed, crushed, and pressed. Got 90L (24 gallons).
SG was just 1.06
PH 3.22
Couldn't get a TA reading, think my kit is to old, week get another tomorrow.
Added yeast nutrient and energizer, added 4Kg sugar, SG is 1.075 now.
Added 4 packets 1118 yeast.
I'm guessing SG was so low because of an the extra fruit. This was the first year I got a big harvest from the new vines we propagated 3 or 4 years ago.
A relative is dropping off 6 lugs of dornfelder grapes tomorrow, now I have to run out and buy a 32 gallon Brute.
