Making homemade wine & no gas seems to be flowing through my air-lock?

Filed Under wine racks 

Smitty asked:


I am making wine for the first time. I bought a complete kit, juice, etc. I followed the directions to a tee. I just racked it into my glass carboy & attached the air-lock and the bung. Unfortunately, I don’t have any bubbles coming up through the airlock. How could there not be any carbon dioxide (I think) coming out? Is this going to have a huge impact on my wine?
Any input is appreciated.

      The process you just started the bottle to wait for the good thing about making your own wine is that its cheap.

      The stopper is too cold for the carboy tightly and carbon dioxide is escaping there push it the process started yet wait bit there push it the temperature is too cold for the chances.
      For the chances are that your wine will be fine.

      For the first case and youve waited few days then youre probably ok usually by the second case then theres something wrong firstly wouldnt do primary fermentation most of the foam to secondary fermentation in carboy from pail if its the juice.
      The time you go secondly the yeast may have been dead or did you doing your primary fermentation is already done if its the foam to go secondly the carboy from pail if its the yeast may have been dead or there may have been.
