Pinot and Strawberry - Secondary Fermentation

Man, thats the most wine I racked yet, my arm started to get sore holding the tubing in place! Well, I got six gallons of pinot into a secondary fermenter, and I should be able to add some clearing and fining agents next week. Its supposed to be drinkable after 3-6 months.

I also got the fruit out of my strawberry primary fermenter, its amazing what mush it looks like after a few days in there, but boy oh boy does it smell good!! I should be racking that one shortly into a secondary after I confirm the PA isn't higher than 3 or 4.

Expect some pictures of my modest (so far) setup in the next few days...

Im going to need more bottles soon! Looks like I will have to drink some more wine!
