URL: huh?

Initial tasting: mmmmmmmm!!! Should produce 7-8% alc. content. Perhaps you could add potassium sorbate at some point to stop fermentation, whilst still leaving enough fruity sweetness, but pleeeeze allow ALCOHOL to form !! After three days, I note two inches of foam, with airlock bubbles at rate of one "bubble" per four seconds - cookin !! Yes, I am enthused..........bdog
