after 5 days of fermenting cherry wine, the airlock is bubbling much less.
At first it bubbled a lot, even bubbled over. Now it has slowed down considerably. Should I be concerned? There is a brown, tannish film at the top of the carboy. Could this be the yeast stuck on the side when it bubbled over. Thanks |

Did you remove and clean the airlock and put in new sulfite solution after it bubbled out? If not you should do it now. Ray |
