Awesome. Thanks!

Had some of my batch today. Bottled 3 days ago. Tastes great but no fizz at all. Do I have to wait a bit longer? I bottled with some simple syrup as I have in the past. Thank you

Hahha

Thank you. So helpful. I really appreciate it.

Haha! Thanks! So just for future knowledge….. When I first carboy it: take a specific gravity and write it down. Do it again after fermentation. Then again before bottling and compare to know? Thanks and sorry if I should know this already.

Second pic from other side

Ok. Tasted it. Tastes great! Refilled the hydrometer and took pics for you. This is what I’ve got

Here is the hydrometer I got. I’ll taste the batch today and see if it went sour or if I’m ok. Thanks again for the help

Ugh. Ok. Thank you. So I really won’t have any way now of knowing, other than drinking this, whether there’s any abv? I guess I’ll just make sure it’s not gone bad and then bottle, drink. I’m bummed. I’ll post a pic here of my hydrometer when I can so that you can see if it’s ok or not.

I’ll have to check it again tomorrow. I don’t have the specific gravity from when I started. I didn’t have the right hydrometer. I’m getting abv directly from the proper hydrometer. It shows 0% potential alcohol. .

I’ll try that and post results. Thanks a ton for the quick response. So bummed. Never had this happen in 5 yrs of making this. I bought a pack of yeast. Hope they aren’t all duds.

August, but past batches I’ve made has had abv fairly quickly

Question guys, I started a batch a while back. Something seemed off when the yeast wasn’t bubbling like it usually does. I finally got a correct hydrometer and measured today…..zero alcohol content. Any suggestions to revamp this batch or do I have to scrap it and start another? Thanks in advance.

Lol;)
