My wine is not behaving correctly, what should I do?
I started a batch of strawberry wine and not having enough fruit decided to make a gallon batch instead of a 5 gallon batch.I cut up the 1 lb bag of strawberries plus a half a bag as well, stirred together fruit = to water amount and covered 24 hours, I then sprinkled a teasp of yeast over juice adding more sugar and water to taste to = to 1 gallon and put in 5 gallon jug with airlock device, I have fermented it X 1 week, I then took cheese cloth after this process and removed all excess pulp and siphoned back into 5 gallon jug, repeated removing fruit mixture process once again to attempt to clarify and then added back to 5 gallon jug with air lock device and added more sugar as sweetness had disappeared from tasting and had been replaced by fermentation smell, then I attached air lock and am wondering from adding sugar to this mixture why is it that there is still no bubbling through air lock?
Be patient. Give it more time.
