I've done it. . .

Ok, there is no air lock just a bung in the demi.

Is it worth trying to bottle tomorrow with PET bottles and 1 tsp sugar per bottle or is it too late.

Many thanks.

Will do,

incedentially that's how I siphoned into 2nd demi, there is a gap probably of about a pint from bung to liquid.

Fingers crossed tomorrow I will siphon again and prime and have a little carbonation.

Will the air gap have affected the tast too much?

Many thanks for all this help!

Ok,

Last night I siphoned the beer off into PET bottles.

I also had one pint. Looked good, tasted rather sweet also no head.

I guess the head can be sorted with irish moss.

There was slight carbonation in demi, so that was a plus. I have added 1.5 teaspoons to the 1L PET bottles.

So will leaving them longer reduce the sweetness?

Or was it due to the recipe?

All in all though a lot better than I thought it would be and very nice to drink.

Thanks for the info.

thanks to everyone for all your help.

Roll on the next batch, now that I know what I am doing!

I have 4 demijohns and a cider flagon with a tap.

I will now move into full production as I know what I am doing!
