Interested to hear how this plays out

Thanks, Brewnaldo. I'll keep you posted.

Bottled this brew yesterday. OG 1050. FG 1000, so ABV 6.56%. This will take some clearing, particularly the last 2 or 3 bottles as there was a lot of sediment at the bottom of the FV. The last 2 look like chicken soup!!! .
No worries though if they don't clear, as I will still drink them!

 

[Graz]

Can imagine this being quite sweet with the Canderel and the sweetened yeast. Also interested to hear what it's like though!

Did you get the explosive pineapple fermentation

 

[Barley Rubble]

No, not quite, as I left a good gap at the top between the brew and the lid of the plastic FV.

 

[Gerryjo]

That certainly will be sweet to drink something like Lilt maybe... Looks interesting though.

I made this mainly as an experiment. All of the previous TC's I've made have been medium dry so I just want to see how it turns out. If it does turn out too sweet for my taste, I'll give it to my grandson and his mates as they love all that Kopperbourg stuff!

Bottle it and add some sugar for Carbonation and you may get a Lilt flavoured alcopop...

 

[Barley Rubble]

I've already done that! Yesterday! Three quarters of a spoon per 330 ml bottle! They are all carbonating now in the warm for 2 weeks.
Believe it or not, they're already starting to clear with sediment showing at the bottom!

Chicken soup wine now there's an idea

 

[Barley Rubble]

See. I've started something now!

 

[Barley Rubble]

Having had 14 days to carbonate in the warm, the bottles have been transferred to the garage to condition further.

Interested to hear how this turned out once it was fully conditioned ...

Kids will drink anything

Actually looking at the recipe I think it will be quite nice.

Will the sweeteners do much to it I have some mj cider yeast but worried about it not being sweet enough
