│ Tonight's ferment of 20L:
│
│ * 4kg sugar
│ * 700g "honey stars" breakfast cereal, crushed up
│ * 30g baker's yeast
│ * pinch DAP, epsom salts
│
│ Breakfast cereals have tons of yeast nutrients and this one tastes like
│ whole grain and honey. So this is more whisky-esque than the Trix cereal
│ experiment -- I've tried it before and it turns out well

6 days later and the SG is at 1.010. So maybe it's at 12% but can reach
the full 13% with a bit more time. A pretty fast ferment.
Smells corny and sour, cloudy yellow color. The cereal on top still
looks and smells pretty good. This was a fun brew and I'm looking
forward to see how it distills -- I'll give it a bit more time to
finish fermenting and clear up.
