Another case of maybe sorbate gone bad! Most of my small 375ml bottles (all bottled around the same time) have sediment and are fizzy. I took the proper steps (sorbated, waited, very lightly sweetened a few, waited a month) with no signs of re-fermentation. Haven't even looked at them since last fall. I checked them today.............apparently they took more than the few weeks that I had waited to start fermenting again! Lesson learned, sweeten BEFORE bulk aging, not a month before bottling...........they may take longer than a few weeks to start fermenting again! Ugh.......maybe one of these days I'll get a batch right!
