    Morning good people, I'm sorry to bombard you all with constant questions. I have just racked my first wow to secondary to clear and it is so so dry. What is the best way to sweeten it without clouding it or using chemicals? Thank you and happy Friday Ben

    Haha you'd love this then I reckon if you had a big swig of this you would implode! My misses had a taste and it made her mouth shrivel up and look like a cats bum.

    No time for hydrometer, gave it a wee taste and its as dry as a dry thing that lives in the Sahara desert!! Tasted ok though. So into secondary and leave it to hopefully start to clear, I want to try and use as little chemicals as possible. You can taste the booze though. 😋

    I'm working near a Wilkinson tomorrow so I will drop in and grab a hydrometer and some finings. I think I'm going to rack into a second vessel tonight and have a cheeky slurp😉 hopefully it wont be as dry as the nuns chuff that I've read about on here. I'll let you know how it goes.

    I don't have a hydrometer so I will use the pop method. So when down to 1 pop a minute I then rack to another container add Camden and sorbate then finings'?
