Hi guys,
I started this around 19 September. Initial thoughts are hopeful - as they provide Lalvin yeast (i think it was EC-1118, not sure). Somehting to think about as they are on par price wise with my old faithful Beaverdale kits.
Starting gravity was around 1085.
Instructions are very easy to follow - standrad kit instructions (i've only ever done Beaverdale and Kenridge before).
It fermented well and i've now got it stabilising, post finings in demis.
It has cleared well (the cold weather recenlty has no doubt helped, as its sitting glistening in the shed!). I'll give it another month before racking again, and might sneek a taste then. I usueally leave my whites for at least 3 months before slurping.
I'll post again with updates.
