    Do I NEED do have a low pH prior to fermentation?

    You will produce the perfect starting point for distillation!

    In what way (if any) does active fermentation affect (a) pH and (b) TA?

    Different acids have different «dissociation» i.e they are different in the magnitude they produce ions in the solution. And it is the quantity of H+ ions that is the pH. When you titrate to find TA you measure the total amount of acid in the wine. Both the ions and the non-dissociated. During...

    Thanks. Good suggestions. I am already underway with my «experiment». At the end of primary fermentation (red wine - home grown grapes) I added 10% Lindemann bin 50 Shiraz. The fermentation kicked off again probably because of residual sugars (I use EC1118). This happened on Oct 4th and now the...
