After primary fermentation I pressed and transferred the wine to DJs and inoculated with MLF. It has now been 3 days and I still don't see any activity (no tiny bubbles and no fermentation lock activity).
I have not added any so2 yet. Should I be adding a minimum amount of SO2 at this time rather than risk oxidation or worse?
Thanks
Joe
Not if ML isn't finished. Have you checked? Often, ML will go spontaneously. IOW, it _might_ already be complete (especially if the pH is above ~3.5). If it is, sulfite the wine and top it up. If not, just top it up and wait.
