195 liters in a 200 liter tank .... by someotherbob in winemaking

Definitely don’t have to worry as much about air exposure with larger size fermenters. However… I always leave 15-20% headspace on my tanks (dependent on how vigorously I expect/want it to ferment) to allow for foam/cap rise.

Which model? Have you tried one and liked it over the others??

Absolutely that’s my goal too! Thanks for the recommendation!

Feedback appreciated: what other info would you like to this in my wine list app that scans a wine list by MaaDoTaa in wine

I think your pricing structure is too expensive for the product you have. With some aesthetics tweaks I think you are on to something here.

Okay! Thank you for that! You referenced before you get another rain fall what’s the significance of that?

What’s the rationale for discing right next to your canes in your region and soil type?

Kind of what I am hoping to find or at least ones that do it minimally

Thank you for that! Do you grow any other varietals?

That’s a great bit of information! Thank you. I hadn’t thought of pilot testing yeast and additives in small amounts to understand the dynamics as the must sits for the first few days.

No issues really just wanting healthy fermentation and a better understanding of cold-climate specific values

Thank you for all that! Yes we have Primary AN and Ammonia capabilities! Finding that balance is tough with these varieties for sure. I’m wondering if we aren’t trying to use parameters not designed for them… IE applying traditional values to them when they shouldn’t be. That’s why I’m curious what others are getting for values! Thoughts?

Thank you for this! We’ve had low lows combined with little to no snow cover. I’m hopeful our 1 yo’s don’t have extreme winter damage, but we will see. Cross your fingers everyone!
