# Wine Recipe - Tri Conical

**Fermenting**

* Clean and sanitise all equipment. 
* Empty contents of juice concentrate bag into fermenter. Rinse the bag out to ensure all of the concentrate is in the fermenter. 
* Dilute up to 23L with non chlorinated water.
* Mix thoroughly, measure the SG and record.
* Add yeast.
  * Hydrate yeast following the packet procedure
* If your kit contains oak chips/grapes\* and you want to use them, add now. 
* Ferment for 10 to 14 days keeping the ferment between 20 - 25 Deg C. 
* Once the SG has stabilised below 1.000 the ferment has finished. Measure and record the SG for Alc calculations. 

**Maturation** - If you are not maturing your wine progress to Settling

* Add Potassium Metabisulfate / Potassium Sorbate package..
  * Mix in water before adding to tank whilst stirring gently
* Rack wine to secondary vessel or oak option.
* On completion of maturation, continue to Settling/Packaging.

  * Mix in water before adding to tank whilst stirring gently
* Add fining if required.
  * Bentonite - Mix in 10 x water, leave to swell overnight. Mix in gently stirring
