\nSaw a recipe from Man Made Mead for fermenting store bought juices.\u00a0 Here is the recipe.<\/p>\n

2 2 liter jugs of Ocean Spray Cran-Pineapple juice
\n1oz yeast<\/p>\n

That’s it.\u00a0 Mixed it and added an airlock. SG = 1.048 (possible 6.3% ABV)<\/p>\n

I will take a final reading on 3\/18\/23 and bottle (or drink it) it.<\/p>\n

3\/6\/23<\/strong><\/p>\n

There was no activity at all in the airlock.\u00a0 Stalled maybe cause I didn’t add very much yeast to begin with so I added a whole packet of Lalvin EC-1118 yeast.\u00a0 This yeast will go to 15% ABV but of course we should only get to about 6%<\/p>\n

3\/21\/23<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gravity = 1.006.\u00a0 I’m going to give it another week.\u00a0 First taste was very dry.\u00a0 Good flavor but may need some back sweetening.<\/p>\n

4\/7\/23<\/strong><\/p>\n

FG = 1.004\u00a0 6.09% ABV
\n1\/2 tsp Potassium Sorbate
\n1\/2 tsp Potassium Metabisulphite
\n1\/2 Cup Splenda for back sweetening
\nRacked into Keg and set pressure to 12 lbs<\/p>\n

5\/20\/23<\/strong>
\nIt’s kegged and fizzy.\u00a0 Not much flavor.\u00a0 I back sweetened it with Splenda and you can really tell.\u00a0 It’s almost got a bitter flavor.
\nIt’s almost gone though…….<\/p>\n
