Hi everyone, I've been gone for a while but it's wine season again so here I am! :o) I have a stupid question,... I have several buckets of Barbera wine just started and I'm planning on doing MLF on them, problem is I only have one packet and I should have foreseen the need for more but I forgot and now I'm stuck! Can I multiply my ONE packet like yeast? In other words make a starter and divide the starter evenly? Louise:o)

Yes you can. I'd suggest using some sulphite-free apple juice and keeping it warm (20-25 C / 68-77 F). You could add extra malic if need be.
