I am making a tropical fruit cider and have added too much sugar. OG is 1.110 giving a potential 14.5% ABV. This is not too big a problem for me as I will still drink it that strong.
However, I want to create two weaker varieties from this batch to serve to friends: "sweet" and "medium".
I plan to take regular SG readings and create the "sweet" version at around 7.5% and "medium" at 10.5%.
Let's say I transfer out the sweet variety from the fermentation bucket after 3 days. What are my options for stopping/slowing the fermentation? All I have is a -18°C (0°F) home freezer and a 3°C (37°F) home fridge. I am worried about bottles exploding in the fridge.
I started the brew yesterday and I intend to serve the cider in 11 days. Any advice?
Thanks in advance.
