New to the forum so Hello everyone.
Just after some advice,
I've got an apple & elderflower cider in primary (13 days in) I've kept it at 20-21 degrees celsius (68-70F) & I haven't used any nutrient as it was a kit & it's had the rhino farts for about a week. It isn't as bad as it was but the SG has settled at 0.998 for 2 days (Started at 1.040). I gave it a very gentle stir tonight as I believe that can help dissipate the sulphur?
I'm not sure whether to rack it for a few days to a clean vessel then see how it is & bottle it? or is there anything I can add to it before bottling? It doesn't taste like it smells, it's quite tart almost slightly wine like.
I'm just a bit concerned that I'll open a load of off cider in a couple of months
Any ideas?
Cheers
