I’m taking advantage of the long weekend to brew up a fresh batch of Promissory.
Keeping closer notes on it so that I can get a bit more consistency between bottles.
ALL of its been drinkable, but some has been drier than others, some more fizzy… etc.
So far to the apple juice I’ve added :
1 pound of corn sugar from LD carlson co. (Like confectioner’s sugar in texture, but no cornstarch!)
1/2 packet of EC-1118 Champagne yeast, which I started in a half bottle of apple juice for 4 hours.
Thorougly cleaned all bottles and tested fliptops. I’m going all fliptops this time to avoid explosions and the need for corks and bottle caps. I get them from the Christmas tree shop for 1.99 each, so please return the empties!
These will be labeled JUL04-11 and I should plan on distributing them to my quality control group somewhere between Halloween and Thanksgiving. Course its fine to let them stand for many months beyond that but who can wait?
