I have a batch of original DB that I started on 9/2. I racked into a carboy on 9/11 and added sulfite, sorb ate and de gassed. Then added sparkolloid per directions. On 9/17 I sweetened with 4 cups sugar. Tasted on 9/22 and added a can of frozen strawberry daquri mix and stirred. I noticed today...
The original DB was started on 9/2. Racked into carboy on 9/11. Racked today and sweetened with 4 cups of sugar. At first it kind of tasted like crap but after chilling a bit and a little extra sugar it's not that bad. Hope it gets even better as time goes on. Super easy process. Thanks, Dave!
Well the original DB is in the carboy clearing and a batch of tropical is in the primary! SG on this one is 1.080 but there is twelve pounds of fruit in there so I think that will increase somewhat.
