Fermentation: Day 8
I've got a gap in my hydrometer collection (-5°B – 5°B and 15°B – 25°B), so I don't really know what the numbers are today, but I'm going to guess around 8°B based on how high the lo-end hydrometer is riding.
I'm pretty happy with this rate of fermentation. I haven't been able to keep the temperatures very low (it's been hot in the apartment lately, and we're having an Indian Summer, so outside is no cooler), so a relatively warm fermentation is inevitable. However, it's not *ripping* right though, and progressing at about 2°B a day, which is just fine.
Plus, the juice smells fantastic! There's no longer any H2S smell, just a little mustiness coming from the yeast nutrients I've added.
