I found a recipe for a cyser and made a couple small changes... but I need some help.
the recipe is
1 gal apple juice (no preservatives) (didnt use it all to fit the below)
2 lbs honey
2 lbs light brown sugar
2 cinnamin sticks
5 dried cloves
when I got it in the 1gal glass jug the original gravity was off the scale of my beer hydrometer -- which only goes to 1.080.
I pitched a dried ale yeast rehydrated for 15 mintues...
It began to ferment for two weeks. I tested the gravity but it was still off the scale... I added yeast nutrient. A week later I pitched a pack of dried champagne yeast rehydrated for 15 mins. It never took off. Both of my dried yeasts were freshly bought.
It is still stuck 1 month later gravity off the scale. It's been sitting at 75degF. How can I get this beast to go?
Thanks.
