Degassing never ends?
Hey folks, I'm working on one of my first large batches of Blueberry wine, around 5 gallons.
The Hydrometer was reading done for about half a week and I racked to remove the bentonite that had been settling (a good couple inches of gunk).
After adding stabilizing agents I waited one day before starting the degasing process with a drill wand. Going back and forth between stirring and replacing the airlock i'm not reaching a point where there is no longer gas buildup. All bubbles are gone from the wine but I know co2 can still be released without bubbling.
Anyone have suggestions? My hope is to fully degas and add kieselsol and chitosan to clear.
Thanks in advance for your time :)
