How do you adjust the acid level? What chemical do you use? Enjoyed the video.

If you want to raise the acid, just add tartaric or citrus acid. Be careful, a little goes a long way. If you want to lower it, you have to run malolactic fermentation or cold stabilization sometimes reduces acid.

PART 2: So I'm using grape juice, regular bakers yeast (I know, I know. . .) and I also have mesquite wood chips. I know mesquite isn't what is used in making wine but I like I said I'm using what I have available. This is more of an experiment, the reason I'm doing it with this to start with is I want to know why people use what they use. I want to know good wine from bad wine. With that said I also want a the best product with what I'm using. Please give tips, advise and wisdom. Thank you.

PART 1: Hello, I am a new alcohol brewer and I have a few question and I would like an experts opinion. I have just started my journey of knowing different wines and different tastes I know that the wine efficient autos are very strict with the do's and don't's of making, drinking and storing wine. I understand all of this. What my question is, is I want to make wine out of regular pure grape juice ( I know these aren't the correct grapes, but I'm starting off with what I have. . .

Really Great Job on this video. I look forward to paying a visit to try some of your wine this year. At what altitude are the source of your grapes grown? Do you add diluted (50ppm) or undiluted sulphite powder pre-fermentation? In the video it appeared to be powder; unless that was an enzyme addition like ColorX. What do you do when faced with a low PH?
