Notes


Bottled 1.5 of this, uncarbonated and unblended, as my lambic codenamed Ole, after 9 months at a stable 1.012. (Sven - the batch I'd started with wild goldenrod, had gotten more pleasant but never stopped being rubbery, too many rookie mistakes there to pin down why). I added an additional 1 gallon each to 1 lb 14 ounces of staghorn sumac and 1 lb 5 ounces of aronia, along with a quarter packet of SO-4. Moved these secondary fermentations to the basement (around 65 F) for 8 weeks of refermentation and conditioning on the fruit.

Notes


Gravity has held steady at 1.012 for 9 months. Bottled 1.5 gallons of the straight lambic with no carbonation, codenamed Ole in my records (Sven, the 5 gallons I put on goldenrod, had gotten better but had a lot of unpleasant rubber and plastic notes, and was dumped). Transferred 1 gallon each to secondary fermenters with: 1 lb, 14 ounces staghorn sumac and 1 lb, 5 ounces aronia. A quarter packet of US-05 was added to each, they were purged with CO2, and moved to my basement (~65 F) for a 8 week refermentation and conditioning.
