I have been messing around with the recipe (Original is still very damn tasty).
I added 2 gallons of peach juice with the last batch. Didnt leave enough headroom for krausen (is it called krausen with cider/apfelwien?) and my airlock blew out with krausen, I left it in place and ended up with fruit flies.
The carboy is clear of any bugs, but there are 20 or so flies flitting around the airlock.
Luckily my brew closet has a very active community spiders, so they have taken care of the flies.
Never had them pop up in the past.
Needless to say, I made this same recipe last year, and it was damn tasty. If I ever run into Ed Wort in Real life, I will give him a big gay hug, regardless if he wants it or not.
fwiw, I mixed up 3 gal apple juice, 2 gallons peach/apple mix, and 3 lbs dextrose, then backsweetened into the keg with 2L diet sprite. Pitched montrachet and a 30 day ferment. Force carbed in the corny.
Made a very darn tastey beverage.
