Norwood Punch Update

Alias - Norhooch.

Racked to secondary this yummy treat. Also dissolved 3 Campden tablets (potassium metabisulfite) in hot water and added that to the punch. That'll keep it from fermenting further, so it keeps its sugar.

Campden tabs are used 1 tab per gallon to sanitize water, wine, cider, beer, etc.
You can use it to sanitize must to kill off wild yeasts. But you must wait 24 hours for the silfites to dissipate before pitching fresh yeast, lest it dies too.

Should be ready to bottle soon. Will remain still (flat).
