First time poster long time reader...
I use a rotary evaporator to collect essence from herbs and flowers I collect through the year. (I'm a perfumer)
I create my own aroma and add this to a sugar wash with EC-1118 yeast and create it to come out at exactly 9.6% each time.
The strength seems to work best with my essence collection.
My sugar wash has a haze that will not clear and I'm struggling to find out why;
- I have used Lallzyme C-Max and BioKleer to create a clarity a few days after my hydrometer is showing 1.0 'bottle'
- The entire wash of 300 litres in one fermenting vessel is does not seem to have any difference in clarity from when I exhaust some from the bottom of the conical tank or take a scoop from the top
- The tank is sitting in 22*C consistently in a temperature controlled enviornment
- The sugar wash only contains castar sugar, ec-1118, Go-Ferm Nutrients, filtered water,
- the reason why I have such a big batch is my fermenting vessel was free so I'm having lots of playing around
What could I be doing wrong to have a hazey brew? Could too much BioKleer do this?
Do I need to wait longer than a few days with a temperature like this?
I'm based in London UK and I'd love to hear your thoughts
thank you
