Well its now been four months since i started this. I racked it last night and gave it a taste. The bitterness from the orange mellowed way down but next time will use much less clove. I will probably drink it in about two months. Cheers.

I listened to this a few days ago. All I could do was shake my head in disbelief. Even now thinking of how stupid this person is makes my head hurt with all the questions it raises in my mind.

Ya I'm not actually putting it in bottles. I have a gallon glass jug I keep my gallon batches in while drinking.

No, its staying in the fridge and then will be drank within another week. I'm not worried about fermentation.

So tonight I took it from the fridge and racked to a clean gallon jug. Then I added two packets of sugar free cherry flavored crystal light and added 1/2 cup of sugar. I gave it a taste and it was pretty darn good. I will give it another week to clear a little and settle the alcohol bite then...

Ok...that had absolutly nothing to do with this thread. This was a how to for people to make one gallon SP.

Cool thanks for the info

I've been wanting to try a cherry SP. how did this turn out?

So CO2 production dropped sharply today and tested tonight and got .992. After only five days reached the end of fermentation. I will cold crash in the fridge for a week, back sweeten, and bottle. I did taste it and it was tart with the alcohol bite. So there you go... one gallon of skeeter pee...

Just making a friendly definition correction. A crap storm would be a non hunter coming to a hunting thread and telling us all how evil we are.

Well, unless those thousands of animals just happen to cross your path and you were not actively seeking them, you were hunting. You may not be hunting for sport but you are hunting for sustenance. I'm 33 and have hunted most of my life and never to take a trophy home. Only to take meat home to...

In primary yeast needs lots of oxygen, and also to allow large amounts of CO2 to escape. When fermentation slows then its racked to a secondary and air locked to keep bacteria out while it finishes.

That yeast should do the job. Did you use yeast nutrient and energizer?

Agreed until racked to second then airlock

What kind of yeast are you using?

Lol, well i already put it in the fridge to start clearing it. It still tasted well enough to me to drink. But next batch im getting the OG for sure.

The SG seems to be rising. It went from 1.010 to 1.012 and the last one was 1.020. I don't know.., I think it just finished sweet.

Thats what im leaning towards too

Just one gallon

I forgot to take original gravity
