To rack or not to rack

Post by likesbeer » Thu Oct 09, 2008 8:22 pm

A week or so ago I thought I would have ago with some grape juice and see what I get.
Maybe a sort of Turbo Wine!
When people do TC do they usually rack off part way through the fermentation?
Its still fermenting nicely just wondered wether to wait till its finished or rack wait to finish fermenting rack again then bottle when all settled down. What do you think?

I didn't bother to rack when I made my TC - didn't see the need to make extra work.

Me neither, I just wait for it to drop clear, and then bottle. I can see no advantage in putting in a secondry.
