Dynamitardens Kardemummaporter - Bottling

Three weeks ago we added cardamom and vanilla in the secondary fermentation of our porter. One week ago we also added coffee. Today it was time for bottling and we now only have to wait for about a month until it should be ready.

DSC00552 Gravity is measured and we seem to reach a pretty strong 9.7% ABV.


DSC00554 Some yeast is mixed with sugar for carbonation. The reason for using yeast is that with such a strong brew it can be hard to make sugar alone manage the carbonation process.

DSC00558 If nothing else, we are getting a great colour.

DSC00562 So many bottles, still so few.. We managed to fill 60 33cl bottles this time for a total of 20l.
