Time to check in.

The wine has settled down now and its time to top it up. The majority of the sediment has fallen to the bottom and the color has taken on a darker tone. I set a light behind to try and capture the color.

It looks kind of pink in the picture, but is really a lovely medium red. About the color of a perfectly ripe Raspberry.

I topped up the carboy with cool water, mixed it up to blend it all, and took the SG. It’s still the same. On goes the vapour lock. I may have to add more Camden in the coming weeks to sterilize and kill any remaining yeast, but it looks like the yeast is all eaten up. We’ll see.
