Hey everyone,
I'm currently brewing a raspberry blonde. I purchase a pre-created malt that came with a small packet of yeast (used these before with no trouble) I mixed the yeast first with 250ml to let it start recating then mixed into my primary.
When transferring to my secondary (about 9 days later) I noticed there was far less waste product then normal. Hydrometer showed 0% alcohol at this time.
I took about half the waste and added it into my secondary along with my 4lbs of raspberries. Checked back a week later and the waste product seemed to be at an acceptable amount so I thought all was well. Another week has passed and I rechecked with my hydromoter and now only at 1%.
This was all done in a temp controlled room at about 19o Celcius.
Ok all that said are there any risks in pitching more yeast or what does everyone recommend I do to increase the alcohol content?
Thanks in advanced!
