Bad taste
Hi
I was racking a gallon of Ribena, (blackcurrant cordial) type wine today and had a quick taste before I started. There's a strong fusty/musty after taste. Also after 4 weeks of bubbling it is still extremely sweet, confirmed by the hydrometer. Sorry can't remember the reading but the hydrometer was halfway out of the liquid. I'm guessing the alcohol content has not risen that high and as such spoiling bacteria have got in, hence the after taste. Any point continuing with it or should I flush it and start again? tia -- Remove N0_SPAM_PLEAZE to email http://www.hookeslaw.com |
