Boil Wort for 15 min.
Cool to 115 F, add 6 ml of Lactic Acid to get wort to 4.6 PH.
Add 10 Pro-biotic lacto bacillis pills to wort
Purge headspace with co2.
Keep temp of wort at 115F for 3 days.
After 3 days PH of wort should be down to 3.24.
Continue with boil with hop schedule 60min
Ph after boil 3.43
After 11 days rack onto 3 lbs of sweet cherry puree. Gravity was 1.012
After 7 days Hydrometer 1.010
Make a starter for yeast as ph will be hard for the yeast to get started.
