RJ Spagnols VDV shiraz adding extra kmeta

[captainl]

I followed all the directions up until this point and I racked it over to a carboy on feb 5 to bulk age it for 3 months. Should I add any extra K meta...like 1/4 tsp.

The reason I ask is because my wine expert kit says to add an extra 1/4 tsp if you plan to keep the wine longer than 6 months. Then I think I read somewhere on here that spagnols recommends this too. but I can't find it anywhere in my directions.

So should I:

Add nothing.

Add 1/4 tsp kmeta dissovled in some wine back into the carboy now.

Add 1/4 tsp on bottling day after it has bulk aged for 3 months.

Thanks

I would contact the kit manufacturer and ask them; they are typically good at responding.
As a general rule, if you are not going to measure your free SO2, which most home wine makers don't, and you are not going to drink the wine within six months, add it.
