My cranberry was transferred to the secondary on the 27th and I had to leave town. Came back and had large amounts of sediments and carried in yeast in the carboy and gallon jug from the pressed fruit that made it thru the nylon bag. Racked it off this yesterday and prepared my pee for today or tomorrow. The question is whether the rich sediments and yeast is still good to use in the pee? I have added a cup of pee to the slurry bottle and a small amount of sugar (tbs)then stirred. I am seeing some bubbles but am not sure if this is trapped gas releasing or a start of new ferment. What is the best way to determine if this is good? I have about 3/4 of a gallon of this slurry I was going to dump in the pee. Would it be detrimental if I dumped it and nothing started and then had to do a 1118 starter? I have read thru other posts using the search and none fit this situation exactly. The secondary was at about 62F for the time I was gone and now is at 66F.
