Ok I brewed a barleywine the other day with the intentions of adding sugar in steps to the primary as fermentation slows and kraussen falls. my PLAN ( open to any and all suggestions from anyone with experience) was to add 5 pounds of table sugar boiled and cooled. I figure a pound at a whack with a touch of yeast nutrient. The mash was 25 pounds of 2 row with nothing else...and the OG was 1.102. The plan is to let this go in primary for a month or so.. rack to secondary and put it away for 6 mos or so before bottling.
too much sugar? ?
