Six days have passed since the vieux chateau du roi started its fermenting and it was time for it to be siphoned into the carboy. i cleaned the wine thief and hydrometer and took a reading. The reading was around 0.994, so the yeast is doing its job. i actually should have done this yesterday but i was too lazy to do it, big surprise.
i don't like to let the siphon rest at the bottom of the primary filter so i grabbed a giant vice to hold the siphon a little above the bottom of the buck so minimize the amount of sediment being sucked into the carboy.
Once again i didn't have anyone to help me with the wine. i did however ask babo to give me hand, but he took a more supervisory roll...kind of like brent in the first step but he had his eyes open...
