another stuck question

I started my frozen concentrate wine 2 1/2 weeks ago. It hasn't bubbled very vigorously since. It was bubbling (in the air lock bubbler) once every 2 sec. Now it's once every 15 sec. The specific gravity has only dropped from



1.075 to 1.065. I've made lots of concentrate wine before and had vigorous bubbling within the week. I've added some lemon juice and some more yeast but still the same. What do I do? Or do I just let it do it's thing?

Have you tried adding nitrogen nutrient to the mix?

Excellent idea!!! Why didn't I think of that? Guess I'm just stupid.... Dissolve it in a cup of water and dribble it into the must so it doesn't erupt like a freshly opened bottle of champagne that's been shook in a paint mixer....
