so my cider is in overflow mode. The day I pitched yeast (5/21) I actually pulled out about 3 wine thiefs worth of juice to try and make room for the kreuzen, but apparently it wasn't enough. It's backed up into the air lock and down into the blow off tube. It's not "flowing" out of the tube but I was wondering whether it would be a good idea to siphon a bit more juice off to make room?
Anyway, I think I should just leave it as is and let the yeast do it's work. As long as there isn't a huge mess it's not a big deal I suppose.
Incase you're curious:
5gal apple cider
1cup dextrose
2lb lt. brown sugar
safale us-05
4 cloves
1T cinnamon
** I think I went a little nuts with the brown sugar. next time I might add it incrementally?
