Sent out an email call to all hands early this morning - time to press the experimental Muscat 2. Just an hour of work, I think. There will only be between 5 and 10 gallons. Press is cleaned and in place.
6:00: Muscat 1 carboys are still foaming, but not nearly so heavily as yesterday when they were made. Will clean and refill the airlocks now, but not finish topping up until they are a bit calmer.

The Muscat 2, ramato, cake
after being pressed |
10:00: Finished pressing the ramato and cleaned up, too. 8 gallons plus a growler. The first 6 + gallons were free run. Even in it's custardy state it's very noticeably more orange than Muscat 1. And it is much more still. (Muscat 1 is still popping the airlocks every couple of seconds.) Ready to add meta.
14:00: Made a new batch of 10% solution and dosed each of the carboys to bring them up to 30 ppm.
