Well I added
¼ tsp. pectic enzyme, 2 tbsp yeast nutrient to my juice yesterday afternoon. It was about 18 hours ago, and this morning I have all kinds of what I believe is mold on the skins bag and in the juice. I am trying to salvage some of the juice by letting is drip out of the primary fermenter, hoping the slimy stuff will stay on top and not get in the juice I let out. Anyway, is it a lost cause now or should I continue? I added a half teaspoon of sodium bisulfate to the carboy before I drained the juice into it. I think I have about 2 and 1/2 gallons. I was boiling the water with the sugar to add to my must when I discovered the problem. I am completely at a loss as to how to proceed, or even if I should proceed. Any suggestions would be MOST appreciated. My hunch is that the cause is that the grapes did not get washed before they were frozen (will not point any fingers
)... so maybe it is really a lost cause? </span>
