2019 Muscat C., day 8

8:00 AM
Cellar 75.5 F, outside 64 F, must 78 F
Brix: 3.8*

Used the short scale hydrometer directly in the fermenter and readings bobbled around over the course of a minute or two from 3.6 to 3.9 and I'm calling it 3.8.  Today we should move from the fermenter to carboys.  The visible ferment is much as it's been and progressing as it has the last few days - fine fizzy bubbling, no foam.

9:30 PM 
Cellar 77 F, outside 73 F, must 78 F
Brix: 2.6

Well, too much block party, too much playing, too much winding down after a Negroni at home.  Distributing the must into carboys will have to wait until the morning.  All else is steady as she goes.
