OK, so I'm down to 1.020 after pitching Tuesday evening (3 paks of D47 in a starter; now I know you don't need a starter with dry yeast) onto 5 gallons of must which includes 13.5# honey, 3lbs blueberries and water. 24hrs later a nutrient addition followed by another when it was at a 1.040
Should it have come down so fast?
Must temp now is 67.6f down from 68.3 I think the other day. Ambient temp is set for 66.
So, I should add my 1/3 break nutrient addition (a bit late) and plan on racking onto 12lbs of Blueberries sometime Tuesday I reckon when it's down a bit to 1.010 and still active, or should I wait until it's finished with the Co2 production before racking?
Has a nice sweet white wine flavor, not much honey flavor left. Should I add a bit of something to counter the acid from the 12lbs of blueberries?
