Clone-6 cab at .997

Clone-6 is still bubbiling and the cap is modestly strong. Specific Gravity is down to .997. Expect it will need to be pressed Fri, Sat or Sun.

Tasted the cab blushes, they were nice. The #2 carboy had little more sweetness left in it. Both were still bubbling slightly.

Lee's 15G and 8G barrels are smelling much better. :) We'll put the 15G of Cab from the Stainless into Lee's 15G barrel when we press the Clone-6. The extra Malbec can go into the 8G--although we still need to look into a pinhole leak on the top that we saw on Sunday.

New 20G French recoop barell is ordered and will be here by the end of next week. It will hold the Clone-6 Cab.
