I bottled a litre 'overflow' elderberry today, as I needed the smaller airlocked bottle for my latest brew.
It tastes pretty raw as expected (spare glass) and to me still smells like elderberries. Tastes like wine though. When I was bottling it, me daughter said she could smell vinegar in the kitchen. the Mrs smelled the glass, and could vaguely smell it, but very slightly..
I honestly can't, but could be in denial (I've got x2 full DJ's and another overlow 750ml bottle)
Has anyone experienced this that wasn't terminal?
23/10 - Made. Simmered fruit method, onto camden - yeast etc 24hrs later
30/10 - racked onto Camden
The overflow bottles, and the x2 DJ's are crystal clear. I haven't added anything else or degassed. It's the darkest dark red I've ever seen, looks like port. Sediment is compact and 5mm.
What should I do with the remaining batch? Bottle? Rack? Camden again? (don't want to use too much)
