Our first batch in the new fermenter did not turn out very well. No fermentation. The sample bottles had a little fizz when uncapped. They had a nice color, but no alcohol. Smooth start, tasteless middle and no ending taste. 😛

We tried to recreate our steps to determine what went wrong. We narrowed down to how we applied the yeast. We believe the yeast starved.

So, we dumped it out. A sad moment.
