Started MLF yesterday, so now the wait for a couple of months to see what happens...In the meantime, The LAST
batch of wild grapes is proving to be some excitement...this A.M. when I got home from work I checked SG, I have a 3 gal batch, and two 1 gal batches, ready to go to glass....so...Hey, I'll mix em in a 5 gal carboy!
Well....woke up around noon, walked into wine making room and OY
, the walls were purple, all the surrounding carboys were purple, the floor was ...well, you get the idea, a volcano to say the least. So I'm scrubbin and cleaning before wife gets home, laughing and cussin' , in my hurry to stay out of trouble, didn't get a pic, You would see all purple. So, to try and remedy this short term ( I hope) situation, I put a blow off tube in a bucket of water, hopefully this calms down soon. May order more culture and do MLF on this as well, figure why not?
This will be the last of the Grand Experiments...No more grapes until next year, but its been fun!
