Elderflower Champagne 2010

Bottled the Elderflower Champagne.

Unfortunately, it looks as though it has stopped fermenting and is looking a bit cloudy. It tastes similar to Dylan’s Elderflower champagne last year, still sweet, slightly sour and tiny bit bitter. I think this is due to the lemon zest sitting in the brew for too long.

I have added two teaspoons of sugar to each 2 litre bottle, to try and kick start the fermentation again and re introduce the much needed fizz that is often found in Champagne! 

At this stage the SG is 1020  original was 1030

difference being 10 / 7.36 = 1.36% alcohol
