Ok..yesterday made 5 gal of Melrlot and 5 gal ot Vino Rosso from Alexander Sun Country concentrate and plan to mix it with a blackberry medium body wine.
The kit has a 3 cc syringe and my reading was .10 (amount of reagent used) when the color changed to gray (took it twice) for the Merlot. The instructions said to times .10 by 1.6 to get the ppt sulfuric level, which was .16. for a fruit wine the ppt should be around 3.6 to 4.2. So if I am reading it right would have to raise it by 3.44 and that would be around 18.7 tsp of Acid blend. This to me is way to much Acid Blend, so I kust used 3 tsp in the Merlot and 4 tsp in the vino Rosso. Any help you guys could throw my way would appricate it...
