I’m having a problem I can’t seem to figure out.. I made a mash using fruit . I made the mash fermented it the first go round but noticed that that Alcohol content wasn’t that high . So I added more sugar to it brought it back up to a specific gravity of 1.040……. > 25 % ABV activated the Turbo Yeast in a glass with 2 Tsp of sugar and 104 F Water .. Then I pitched it into the mash.. And airated it… I added 2 1/2 Tsp of yeast nutrient to it … So far after 12 hrs I still have no activation .
> Is the existing Alcohol in the mash over powering the yeast ?
> Or is the sugar ?
> Should I get Distillers yeast ?
> And if that is the case can I mix it with the existing yeast ?
> What can I do to kick this off ?
