Fuzzy, so no backsweetening? My primary fermentation is over so figured I would rack, k-meta, sorbate, and super-kleer in a day or so. But if no backsweetening is needed, then off to bottling after a couple weeks of clearing. I am looking for a hint of Mt. Dew taste but not too sweet of course. I just did not want it too dry.
I used goosen's recipe as well. Fermentation took about a day or so to kick off. It was never a very vigorous fermentation, but I would give the carboy a swirl or two every few days and the outgassing was pretty obvious. That was about a week and a half ago and we are already down to 0.990 SG.
I didn't think it was necessary. There's a nice Mt. Dew flavor and the artificial sweetener that's in the syrup was enough for me.
