Hey folks,
I'm thinking of getting some wine on the go as my TC was very enjoyable to make and I can't wait to try it (smells just like Addlestons at the moment mmmm :
.)
Reading around I see that it is neccessary to degass wine when it has fermented - and I think I may have just the right piece of kit! I have a large 70ltr vacuum degassing chamber that I use for resin casting which is my day job. It can degass down to -30 psi and I thought it may just be the ideal thing for degassing wine (I knew it would come in handy for fun as well as work!) So, will it work? Even when I degass water you get quite a bit of air bubbling out, so I suppose it would pull the CO2 out of wine in pretty short order! Its plenty big enough to put a DJ in there, or I could siphon it off into another vessel before I degass it in case it bubbles furously like all my resins do.
What do you think, will it work?
Will.
