urm, not sure which forum to post this in
I have recently been looking into making country wine, as well as kit white wine. i have been brewing kits since the start of the year, so I am still new to the game, however there seem to be differences between wine making and beer making which are confusing me.
Beer - pitch yeast, leave in FV untouched until fermentation complete (unless double dropping)
Wine - pitch yeast, leave loosely covered, stir every day for 5ish days
Beer - don't mess abotu with it, transferring it from FV to FV could introduce oxygen or infection to the beer
Wine - rack, rack, rack and rack again before bottling
Beer - don't splash brew, don't want to introduce oxygen
Wine - pick up DJ and sake like made to de gas. rack rack and rack again.
Plus a couple of other smaller points that I've forgotten about at teh moment. Can anyone explain these to me?
