Hey Everyone,
I am in some need of the HBT families advice. I have a cherry pie wine that I started almost two months ago now. It got off to a very slow fermentation and I got nervous so I dumped another package of yeast in. I used Red Start Green Packet (Cotes De Blancs) yeast both times. After about a month I transferred out of my primary bucket into my secondary carboy. I was worried with how little it was fermenting that I need to not have any headspace. Now a month later there is still signs of fermentation like bubbles rising around the sides to the top slowly. There has barely been any signs on the Hydrometer of change. It has been sitting at about 1.02 for a very long time. My question is do I cold Crash and hit it with Camden and Sorbate or just stick out the long haul and see if it finally stops?
Thanks
