Thanks guys. Over 36,500 views. Did we hit 500 gallons yet?
SWMBO just phoned me to tell me she floated the Apfelwein keg. I guess I'll be bringing a keg in from the garage cooler when I get back in town and starting a new batch. That one only lasted 3 weeks. |

If you just made some, rachet up the total gallons.
How many gallons of EdWort's Apfelwein have been made? ![]()

Well, I tried to start my first batch today and got so darn excited I screwed the thing up... used nearly 5lbs of dextrose instead of 2... I guess if I start working on that airplane I've always wanted maybe I can use this for fuel?
Damn i'm an idiot. any ideas on how to salvage it? I guess, I could try siphoning half of it into another carboy and adding 2 gallons to each carboy? Of course then i've got 10 gallons of apfelwein that I don't even know if I'm going to like (although you all keep telling me that I will, so hopefully that's the case! lol) le sigh.

Get it to a gravity reading you want and kill the yeast.
You'll have to settle for the non-carb'd version and it will likely be sweeter than dry but that may be okay.

What do I need to do to kill off the yeast? Is there an appropriate FG that I should be aiming for?

Campden and wine stabilizer tablets will do a fine job of killing the yeasties.

It's up to you to decide. Calculate your alcohol percentage ((Starting Gravity - Current Gravity) x 131)). If the alcohol is where you want it, take a taste. If that's fine...hasta la vista my yeastie friends. ![]()
