What is the upper limit for S-04 alcohol tolerance?
I used it to brew a cider and it got the FG down to .991 with an ABV of 9.66%. After two weeks carbing in the bottles with enough sugar to provide 2.7 volumes of CO2 I still don't have much carbonation. I'm wondering if the alcohol has killed the yeast or if warming the bottles and giving the yeast another couple weeks to carbonate will do the trick?
