hey,
ive been researching the ins and outs of making wine out of a store-bought juice bottle for quite some time now. I've never made any type of brew before and decided id finally give it a shot and start with something simple like that. I feel pretty confident about executing the fermentation process but the details are a little fuzzy for me on the storage aspect.
my question is: exactly how effective is cold crashing when it comes to killing off the yeast? I am worried about some of the yeast coming back to life when the temperature comes back up.
Another thing, should i even worry about cold crashing at all? Ive read that some dont consider it necessary. how do you guys personally store your finished wines?
feel free to go into heavy detail. the more information the better. I love to read about all of you perfecting your art.
cheers.
