Stalled Rum Fermentation

Putting older posts here. Going to try to keep the novice forum pruned about 90 days work. The 'good' old stuff is going to be put into appropriate forums.

Stalled Rum Fermentation

Post by BosDistiller »

Hi, my rum washes seem to be consistently stalling at a final gravity of 1.03. My starting BRIX is around 23. The PH is 5.5. I've been rehydrating and pitching the yeast at 37C, and it's fermenting in a hot environment (roughly 85F). I'm getting a vigorous ferment for the first couple of days, but without fail, it's stalls at 1.03. Any suggestions?
