Crashed fermentation

Post by Dunkydonuts »

I have a troublesome sugar wash. I think it’s to do with the sugar I used because under the same conditions with a different brand everything went well.

Anyway, it’s stuck at 1.015. Ph is low at 3.6 and I have left it a month but I think it’s officially dead.

Is it a bad idea to strip it at this sugar level or is this just going to result in puking and a spirit that tastes of burnt sugar. I’m wondering if I should just ditch it and learn from my mistakes?
