Muscadine day 7 update


Transferred wine to secondary container and removed the pulp and seeds. I now have 2 gals of beautiful deep ruby red Muscadine Nobel Wine and actually doesn't taste to bad. SG was 1.032 at the time of transfer from a starting level of 1.111 on 8/23. When it was time to transfer I only had 1 airlock and the only thing large enough (2gal) was my 2.5 gal primary bucket. Transferred to that, but by morning it did not see the bubble rate I expected to see. But by afternoon my other airlocks arrived. So I transferred to two 1gal bottles. I am not sure the bucket had an air tight seal, since these are bubbling quite well still.
