I am making a lime skeeter pee and the hydrometer reading was stable for several days and the gravity was just a hair above .00
I added the campden and potassium sorbate, sparkolloid and degassed. A couple days later I started seeing tiny bubbles rising and it has been doing this for two weeks!!!! I started this over a month ago, and it has completely cleared.
My assumption is that degassing added more oxygen and jump started the nutrients again. Should I just let it sit until it stops, or should I transfer it to get it away from the sediment and introduce more oxygen to help it along and then add more potassium sorbate and metabisulfate (campden tablets) to it? If so, how much more should I add before bottling?
Any advice would be great. This stuff has been teasing me for over a month and I would hate to wreck it now!
