I am working on a batch of Blackberry wine, I started with a SG of 1.090. At transfer from crock to carboy I had a SG of 1.030. Less than 3 weeks later, essentially all bubbling has stopped and I have a SG of .992. Is this about normal?
I just siphoned and racked for the first time. Is it safe to cork or should I still airlock and if so for how long?
Taste aside would the wine be "safe" to drink now?
Also I am shooting for a quite sweet country wine and will probably add sugar. Would it be prudent to do it now or at a later racking? and is there a specific gravity indication of how sweet a wine is or is it merely taste?
Thank you guys. Much appreciated!!
