I made the following 5 gallon batch
Brewed 9/4/10
12 clover
Water to make 5 gallons of total must
K1V1116
Aerated and added Nutrient per the staggered approach
OG 1.048* on 9/04/10
SG 1.002 on 12/2/10 (has been 1.002 for a few weeks)
*I believe this is wrong due to all the honey not being blended at time I took the gravity reading.
I have this cold crashing right now as I am trying to get as much yeast to drop out as possible.
Now I'd love to add about 5 to 6 oz. of additional honey at bottling (12 oz beer bottles) so this carbs. If by adding this honey it doesn't carb and just sweetens it a little I am OK with that. What I don't want to happen is have bottles bombs on my hands.
So to those that are more experienced do I run the risk of creating bombs if I add 5 oz of honey at bottling? Or should I Sorbate and Sulfate this and bottle it still?
