Champagne/ brett b

[CodlingMoth]

I used the dregs from my last batch of champagne cider and some of my Brett b cider to start three gallons of un pasteurized Michigan apple juice. Was crazy bubbling after 8 hours and has calmed down to a slow sizzling fizz.

So now a little better than a week into primary and this is settling down nicely. I'm guessing the primary is very close to finished. Does anyone have any experience with open fermentation in ciders? I know that my time limit for co2 is coming up, but will the Brett pellicle up and protect it I want to leave it for a couple more weeks?

Started to smell and taste like paint. Duped it. Booooooooo! Live and learn. Next batch...
