Hi
Just started my second Elderberry wine using dried berries and I am having the same problem I had with the first.
I got high PH of 3.0 and 3.1 respectively whilst the TA for both is 0.54% which I am happy with for a none grape red wine.
What to do?
If I had lowered the PH to 3.4/3.6, which I’ve been told is what it should be at.
The TA would have almost certainly have dropped to below 0.50%, which is below the 0.5/0.6 range I’ve read that I should be aiming for.
So which is the most important PH or TA?
I'm looking for advice on what to do ready for my next batch of Elderberry.
Kindest Regards
Nick
