Equipment: Boil pot, jars, draft bottle and cap, tasting bottle and cap, racking cane, tubing, hydrometer, iodophor, sugar
Steps:
- Cold conditioned beer for ~24 hours start temp:~66F terminal temp:~50F
- Airlock vodka sucked into fermenter due to vacuum
- Boil jars for 20 mins
- Cap boiled water in jars
- Put jars in water bath to cool
- Sanitize all equipment
- Made sugar mixture of ~2.8 tbsp corn sugar and 5 tbsp water
- Too little sugar! Need to recalculate this. I think it should be closer to 3.6 tbsp.
- Add sugar mixture to bottles that will be bottle conditioned
- Siphon from fermenters to bottles
- Siphoned to small bottle first, clamped tube slightly and moved over large bottle, let go to siphon into large bottle
- Measure FG, if haven't already

- Burp bottle before capping
- Add water to fermenter
