Edited to say I started on May 7,2011

Hi, Ok, I will let it go. I would gather that at this rate it will take another three weeks or so. Do you find it has been a slower than normal process or I'm I on track with others?

Mine is going slow or at least I think it is... I guess I just need to be more patient. Reading on May 23 was 1.026 Reading on May 30 was 1.018 Should I still mix daily? I mixed today and it creates a lot of foam... Actually bubbles over the opening of the carboy.

Congratulations! Sounds like it was a hit with everyone. I will have to try that when mine is ready. Thanks for sharing.

This sounds and looks excellent. I think this will be my next batch

Wow...ok, now I see how to shake it up. I can easily do that. Thanks very much

I was away for two days so I did not stir during that time. Checked the reading today and it's at 1.020 and taste excellent. Gave it a good stir and a few words of encouragement. Lol

Wow, that does sound good.

I should have mentioned that it's 5 gallons so too heavy to shake.

Hi, It's in a Carboy. I stir with a stir stick. I stir for three or four minutes

Still no movement.... Hmm I will keep stirring

Ok...great. I'm almost there. I will stir a couple of times a day. Thanks again... Much appreciated

Ok....excellent! Thank you ver much, I will do that Did you have to do that for yours?

Ok... Thanks This is the first time I make the lemonade. So, do you think there is too much oxygen? Just to help me learn... What do I hope to accomplish by stirring? All I have is a stir stick.... Will that be ok? Truly appreciate your help.

Seems to be at 1.028 today ( Monday may 23). Temperature is around 72 degrees Bubbles in the airlock one every 6 seconds or so. I can see lots of little bubbles in the lemonade that are rising up. I wonder why it's fermenting so slow? Is this normal?

Just thought I would bring this one back up towards the top

What I found very interesting about beer in Germany is that every region not only has their own specialty beer but they have their own way of serving it. For example in southern Germany like in munich you have the huge beer steins. In another region it is a tall skinnier glass and in another...

Wow... That is unreal. I'm so sorry to hear this! Glad you're ok

Added half a teaspoon each of nutrient and energizer and gave it a good stir. I hope this gives it a boost. The energizer and nutrient when mixed together smelled a bit like ammonia, I hope that's normal. I test my reading right in the Carboy or in the wine thief... Perhaps it's not giving an...

Hi, That is what I have used in the past with some wines. This time I thought of using campden tablets and sorbate and then sweetening after a few days with a simple syrup. I was just interested in hearing what others have done.
