- Tasting Notes
I had a very slow fermentation start. My Wyeast was a little old, and the package didn't swell. I had nearly no fermentation after 72 hours @ 68F. I added a pinch of yeast nutrient and gave it a gentle stir. It finally took off a few hours later. I ended at 4.99% ABV, which seemed a little low. Measured again after adding the Bourbon, and still sitting at 4.99% ABV. Most likely didn't have a good seal on my Bourbon\Oak soaking and lost alcohol in the Bourbon.
