Racked our apple wine about Christmas time. Will bottle if the weather
ever breaks here. The 3 gallon carboy and gallon jugs with normal airlocks have very fine settlings on the bottom. Wine is clear as a bell. Had not quite a gallon left so we filled 4 wine bottles and stuck balloons over the mouths. Nice clear settlings just like above, but have noticed in the last couple weeks little bumps on the bottom. Looks kind of like sand grains is about as close an analogy as I can come up with. Bottles were washed and rinsed with sterilizer just like the carboy and gallon jugs. Only difference is the balloon instead of airlock. Ideas?? Thanks |
