Brix 2.65
Steady pumping of CO2 - glad to see it, that makes us comfortable targeting tomorrow for going to smaller vessels. Still, we decided not to disturb things too much, did not open the tank except through the taps, left the (no longer frozen) ice block in, etc. Time to rearrange things in the cellar, make for 5 carboys, and let the troops know there's a little work to be done on Sunday.

Brix 1.2.
Steady CO2. Tomorrow seems like the right day to condense into CBs. Monday at the latest. Tasting the rough wine is not so pleasant - it's lost most of the cidery-sweetness of the middle ferment, and is now alcoholic and acidic. (Always worried about the acid, these last 3 or 4 years.)
