Hi. Starting to make wine and new. I did this a long time ago and of course didn’t write it down.
I have red and white juice so I didn’t crush this time. The brix level out of the 6 gallon pale is 0.0. I feel this is really low. Should it be 20-30 out of the pale? Thanks
 
Yes I would expect your Brix reading to be higher.

For most wines, I would expect your grape juice/wine base to be in the 19-25 Brix range depending on the quality of grapes.
