Initial 1.070 and when I moved to secondary 1.021.
I added more frozen concentrate apple juice so it would finish fermenting to get to the 9% that the yeast I used would get to, and still have some sweetness.
I am borrowing a friends keg and CO2 to use to bottle and carbonate, so I have not checked it in a couple of weeks. I hope to get the equipment and check it this week, and get it into bottles.
I'm thinking it is lower than 1.021 now, somewhere closer to 1.000 so that would be able the 9% I'm looking for.
The difficulty I had with this first batch we getting it fermented out so I can add more sweetener so I have a sweet and not too dry drink AND have it carbonated.
