I saw you typed that it should be in the primary for 1 week and secondary for a month, did you mean the other way around? Only one week in the primary seems kinda short to me...

I had this in the primary for 1 month and secondary 3 months. I would like to bottle it now.

Any special considerations for carbing? (3.5 oz corn sugar for 2.2 volumes)
Do I need to add more yeast?

thx

Looks good, i added a bit more 2-row to boost the ABV over 10% but i'm keeping your recipe otherwise. I'll probably let you guys know in January how this bad boy turned out.

I'd like to know this as well. Brewed this on Saturday and she's bubbling away still. I've made apple wine that was this strong and waited 4 months to bottle and they turned out fine without more yeast but I'm not sure if its the same with this yeast.

depending on the alcohol content, time in secondary, temperature, etc....

1. I would pitch more fresh yeast in the bottling bucket

2. Make sure said yeast can tollerate the high alcohol

3. Give it a month mimimum to carbonate. 2 months would be great.

I had a issue with a 15% RIS and did not add any yeast. No carbonation after 6 months. opened the bottles, rehydrated some champagne yeast and use a syringe to add yeast to the bottles, re-capped and now it is carbonated correctly. This all is IMHO

Just transferred this this secondary after a month and I'd have to agree with you. The color on this is amazing! Best looking beer I've made to date... The taste on the other hand is a bit harsh still, but that's to be expected.
