Yea the potassium sorbate is going to inhibit reproduction in the yeast you pitch. So they won't multiply. But you could pitch a huge amount to overcome this but it would be just as easy to get different juice and more reliable.

Sorry for the off topic post, but I thought this thread was a sale on porn or something judging my it's name.

That would be cool. I could compare and maybe get your recipe.

Funny I was just thinking of starting another thread. I started a batch of Brewers Best English Brown Ale and was hoping to find a sample of someone's homebrew. The Ale Smith, I was going to ask them to get me one I didn't see on their website. The Nautical Nut Brown is rated fairly high on...

I am trying to get a bottle or few of Moose Drool. Can't get it here and I've been on a Brown Ale kick. Other good ales considered. Especially sweet, nutty, low IBU. My local store has an online list you can look through. Let me know if we can work a swap. Beer : Micro Brewed Beers -...
