Irn Bru TC

Shame it didnt work out or I would have made some for me missus!

I reckon it would be worth someone trying it again. It's probably too sweet because it was fermented with bread yeast. Swap it for a wine or champagne yeast and it will probably ferment out drier (and more alcoholic ). You can then sweeten it to taste.

From the ingredients, it looks like it has sodium benzoate in it as a preservative - that may have stopped the yeast. Maybe a champagne yeast or something fairly hardy might have a chance at fermenting out? Perhaps one of the high alcohol yeasts?

I have done D&B since & that had the words preservative on the ingredients unlike the Irn Bru & that fermented down to 1.000. Im gonna do it again as soon as ive freed up a DJ.
Got to admit i didnt take readings & bottled it after 5 days. I thought Turbo meant it'd be done in no time at all. Was fizzy though.

Maybe just not finished yet - not dead, merely slightly "inhibited"

Still a top effort though
