Hi Darlene.

Wine is over a month old actually, but racked clear off of any
sediment a couple of weeks ago. Usually by this time, 95% of my wines
have cleared somewhat. I've got pink fuzzy wine right now - no
clearness in it. which is what worries me. last time I had this, it
took months, and then I had to use egg whites or bentonite to clear
it, and I wasn't too pleased with having to do that. I wonder if the
mini-jet would take care of that? hmmmmm.
