I have 2- 5 gallon batches of cherry wine I started 1 1/2 years ago which
have been bulk aging for some time now and I'm about to bottle but just wanted to double check on the required so2 levels. From what I understand 35 ppm is the desirable target, if not then what is recommended? Tart red cherry, ph = 3.30 titret read 27ppm and Fermsoft sulphite calculator says to add .46 grams pot meta to hit 35 ppm. Tart black cherry, ph= 3.28 titret read 21 ppm same sulphite calculator says to add . 26 grams pot meta to hit 35 ppm. I plan to add the pot meta by transferring so it mixes in well along purging with co2 beforehand then let sit 2-3 days before bottling and leaving 1/4" to 1/2" headspace between the liquid and cork. Does all this sound in line? Rick |
