2022 Chardonnay: day 4

 4:30

  • Brix: 15
  • Juice temp 80; room temp 74; outside 61 & cloudy
Much flatter foam, did not foul overnight.  Still popping the bubbler 1 per second.  2 degrees F hotter.  About 57% of the sugar is left to ferment.  Alcohol level probably now 6%.  



19:00
  • Bix: 12
  • Juice 79 F; Room 74 F; Outside 65 F, partly cloudy.
Still pumping once per second, but foam is now flat and sizzly.  Slight decrease to temp.  All is well.  Tomorrow will compare it to other years.
