Fores are great for starting a BBQ.
Heads can be saved, diluted down to sub 30% and re-run, on slack days.

DON'T THROW IT AWAY. It will be fine.

If it fermented out. It probably just took longer than it should.

The hearts will be fine. Perhaps needs a filter. Taste it at all stages. You will learn and understand whats going on.

Heads and fores can anyways be used for other things.

Hello guys,

As the title says, here's step by step what I've done:

- Used 7kg of sugar
- Blamed the EZ filter system for not doing its job
- Read something about 'more sugar is more yeast stress, so more negative smell'
- Found that 7kg DEXTROSE was on the package and not 7kg SUGAR (but 6kg sugar).

I have used 1 kg of sugar too much.

IMPORTANT QUESTION: Is this drinkable?
I have, by coincidence (inattention), collected too many fores and heads. (At least 1 advantage)

Sam
