When we make wine to the WOW guide there is no mention of using boiled water to bring the juice to the shoulder before starting fermentation, the 30 bottle kits i regularly make say start with 5 litres of boiling water add all the ingredients then top up to 23 litres with cold water, again no mention of cooled boiled water.
Why are we advised to use cooled boiled water to top up half way through fermentation, if it is safe to use tap water before starting why is it not safe to use it to top up ?
