High TA

[Wineutopia]

Good morning Everyone - I seem to be having issues getting my TA down to under 90. I have been lowering PH to 7.0 and aerating as best as i can but it only drops it to 100 and it seems to creep back up over a couple days. Here are the readings from this morning:

FC: 5.5
PH: 7.8
TA: 130
CH: 250
CYA: 35

Any other suggestions on decreasing TA???? Thanks a lot guys

W,

I have found that to lower my TA takes a couple of days of effort... You have to test and add acid every two to four hours.. You lower pH to 7.0 and then add acid again when the pH increases to 7.3 or 7.4... over and over and soon the TA will drop to where you want it...

It has never worked for me if I add acid one day and then don't test or add anymore until the next day.

Thanks,

Jim R.
