From the Journal, "Pop My Berry" - in the carboy

In The Carboys

My friend (mike) brought over some fruit, and we made up a batch, here's what we threw in the bucket

  • 7.5 lbs Fresh Sweet Cherries
  • 5 lbs Fresh Strawberries
  • 3/4 tsp Pectic Enzyme
  • 3 tsp Yeast Nutrient
  • 3 Crushed Campden Tablets
  • Lavlin K1-V1116 Yeast
Estimated Alcohol by volume : 10%

This has been in the carboys for quite some time now, it's about ready to bottle, will have a bottling/tasting update when that happens
