Hi,
I am brewing again and i kinda just went with a few things i had around the house.but its day 6 and my airlock is still bubbling slow.my O.G = 1.070 and today its at 1.060 ......kind of weaker than i wanted.i am using redstar prem cuvee yeast,i sanitized verry well (1 cap bleach @ 1gal of water) i rinsed it verry well.
but here is what im brewing
2 gallons of black tea
1 gallon welches grape juice
1 gallon welches kiwi strawberry juice
1/2 cup brown sugar
9-10 cups of white sugar
1/2 cup of raisins (boiled and used juice from them)
i aerated it for about 6 min...
and on day 3 i added more yeast cause i thought that might help kick it up.
im stuck...what should i do.
and i didnt use anything with a preservative in it.
my other brew is 100% all welches grape and it fermenting alot better..verry fast bubbling .....(i like bubbles)
