I just did this. It was part of a competition we had and with the PB2 and Vodka I added Cherry Extract (Cherry was the contest part). I was going for a Peanut butter and (cherry) jelly beer. I didn't put enough cherry in and it really tasted mostly like vodka. It didn't ferment for long enough...

Don't have my notes in front of me but I think I was a little bit higher from what the recipe called for.

I'm sure that wasn't it. I moved it to a secondary conditioner and got a lot of oxygen in there. If anything it was fermented too long, if that is such a thing.

Ok so I totally botched a batch. Fortunately it was only one gallon. It was a Three Floyds Rabbid Rabbit Clone which is a Saison and one of my faves. Anyway... I think I had old yeast, it was oxidized, yield was off... etc etc... It basically tastes like a watered down, fizzy apple cider at...

Ok! Gonna do it then! Do you think it will be ok to do the secondary in plastic buckets?

Decided to just leave it. It has been humming along fine. Going to move to secondary tomorrow and dry hop. I may split it in half and do half sugar and half just leave it alone. Not sure though.

Ok... so I attempted this recipe over the weekend and totally spaced out and forgot to add the corn sugar. How screwed am I?
