Initial Merlot Numbers

I tested each pressing seperately and found some slight changes, but nothing significant or even beyond the margin of error of my chemistry skills and equipment.

Early Free Run Free Run 1st Pressing 2nd Pressing
TA .62% .56% .58% .6%
pH 4.02 3.96 3.95 3.94
SO2 coming soon
Notes tastes sweeter, still fermenting so carbonic acid might be effecting the numbers. Also a slight sulfur nose, not rotten eggs, very faint. Tastes almost dry, acid ok, not much tannin, good finish same + a little mustier & grapier same + slight carmel nose
