Prepared and started it last night. I'm about to pitch the yeast this evening.
2.85 gallons total mass right now
6 lbs blueberries
2 lbs chopped raisins
4 lbs sugar
as appropriate:
super ferment
acid blend
k meta
pectic enzyme
For those interested the SG went up 9.6 gravity points from sugar extraction in the last 20 hours. So now I have an SG of 1.100. Is this too high? I don't really want to water it down due to the minimal amount of fruit.
Acid level measured .30% so I added more acid blend. It should be around .45 to .50% right now but I haven't measured it post correction. I plan to correct post fermentation as long as .45 to .50 is not to far out.
Will this ferment ok? Using ec 1118.
Thanks
