Hey,
I tried to make myself a pomegranate cider.
I did 2.7 litre of pomegranate juice
And probably roughly 2 litre of apple juice
100 gram of sugar
Yeast nutrient
Bulldog sweet cider yeast 4grams
I added this all in on Sunday and let it bubble away once it had stopped I topped up with the remaining juice (to make it 4.7 litre)
When I opened it it smelled so bad no other words to say than like ass or toilet water.
Iv been reading up and a hear some yeasts produce this awful smell, is this the fact or could it be the juice that I have used?
Also how can I get rid of this horrible smell?
It bubbles away for 3/4 days however now it has stopped, I broke my hydrometer so once my new one arrives il text the gravity.
I may add cherry is there a way to kill yeast inside a 5lr Demi so I can add cherry syrup without it turning into a higher abv as I want it to stay around my 3.8% I was aiming at.
P.s sorry for being such a noob however we need to learn somewhere
