I am making port and I have french cubes in the 5 gallon carboy according to the instructions. We put the port in Oct and we have racked it once. I have three questions:
1) should I rack again - how important is that to do with Port?
2) if I rack I will have more head space. Should I top off with another port or not worry so much because of the alcohol content?
3) As for the french cubes, I was planning on leaving them in there for a year, but I am wondering if they will need that long before maximum extraction.
thanks marc
