Three days ago, I added Kielosol and Chitosan, racked my pomegranate wine into two one-gallon jugs, and put them away in an old 'fridge in the garage at ambient temperature about 35 to 40F. After racking, I still had a bit less than a quart of wine left over -- not enough to do anything but drink. I put it in the house 'fridge and let it sit until last night. Still on the tart side of the taste level, I added sugar before I put it away. Last night, the wine was perfectly clear to the point where I could read labels on the other side of the Mason jar. The color is a beautiful ruby red. The pomegranate taste is great. Now, all I have to do is collect enought split size bottles over the next couple of months. I'm thinking about racking again in a month or so to get it off the lees. I have some raw frozen pomegranate juice that I'm thinking of using to top off the jugs. Anyone see any problem doing that?
