Default winemaking variables

"wrist action" I would say wrist action counts for yeast pitching, yeah.
*grin*

I think some of the variables are hot versus cold soak, yeast type and
fermentation temperature, days of must in contact with solids, degree of
finished dryness , bulk and bottle ageing durations, pot met used, number of
racking operations, ageing sur lees, type of enclosure, volume of bottling
vehicle, and.... hummm, that's all I can think of right now. More will come
when I close this and try to sleep...
