■ 🕑 42. │ 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 │ └─■ 🕑 47. 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.
