(lost a lot along the way) 1st racking, right after the end of the Malolactic conversion. Need to add : 50 (mg/l ) x 7 (liters of wine) x 2 ( metaBIsulfites ) x 1.5 ( half of sulfites has been lost since we added some ) = 1.050g ( 1.050g in fact ) of metabisulfites 2nd racking, 2 month later. Need to add : 25 (mg/l) x 6 (liters of wine, lost a bit through transfers) x 2 ( metaBIsulfites ) x 1.5 ( half of sulfites has been lost since we added some ) = 450 mg of metabisulfites 3rd and final racking, 2 months later. Need to add : 25 (mg/l) x 5 (liters of wine, lost a bit through transfers) x 2 ( metaBIsulfites ) x 1.5 ( half of sulfites has been lost since we added some ) = 375 mg of metabisulfites ****************************************** My Favorite Cooking / Baking ware ****************************************** Cheesecloth : http://amzn.to/2sfrLuH Non stick cooling rack : http://amzn.to/2sD9yVp Silicon pastry mat : http://amzn.to/2qVLuM4 Stainless Steel Mixing Bowls : http://amzn.to/2r546Z7 Baker's Half Sheet Tray : http://amzn.to/2s3AXCI Small kitchen scale : http://amzn.to/2s3qwPI Non-contact Digital infrared thermometer : http://amzn.to/2s3j9Yc Lodge Cast Iron Skillet : http://amzn.to/2sCTqCW Digital Food Cooking Thermometer http://amzn.to/2s438RQ ******************* MY FILMING GEAR ******************* Canon 70D Camera : http://amzn.to/2rU1jpS Canon 10-18mm Vlogging lens : http://amzn.to/2qVJuDl Sigma 18-35mm 1.4 all around Food Lens : http://amzn.to/2r1u6cI Canon 100mm Macro Food Lens : http://amzn.to/2rUwukZ Rode VideoMic Pro (microphone) : http://amzn.to/2r4Xc6o Mini tripod : http://amzn.to/2s3uh7J Bigger tripod : http://amzn.to/2sfB3XD Gorillapod Flexible : http://amzn.to/2r1Gx8r My Smartphone with a good lens : http://amzn.to/2sCCegV **************** * SUBTITLES * **************** You want to Help everyone understand that F* French ??
