So I've finally narrowed down my previous batches stalling out and it seems like it's been the pH getting too acidic and I'm curious if this is something that.... usually happens? When I was looking up guides for Kilju nothing mentioned acidity being a problem even for high ABV batches, but so far I've had to add an entire teaspoon of baking soda just to get it up to 13%, I know yeast makes it environment more acidic but to the point of stalling out 3 times and needing incremental additions of a base to keep it going seems a bit much

I'm not sure if this is just an oversight with it clearing status effects or intended but it cures an insane amount of radiation build up, drank one with the extreme radiation poisoning because I was curious and it immediately dropped it all the way down to radiation tingles. There's basically no reason to make the syringes now, it heals far more radiation for way cheaper once you get started with chemistry

I can't really find a clear answer anyways, my last batch stalled and I have no idea why, it was still incredibly sweet even though fermentation stopped and it was already clearing up. Only thing I could think of was maybe there wasn't enough yeast nutrient, and I don't know where but in quickly looking it up I saw that 1 tablespoon of DAP is recommended, but now in trying to find more sources... everything says 1 teaspoon, or other varying amounts. The container itself recommends 1 teaspoon per gallon, but I'm not sure.

Have no idea why it stalled if it wasn't the lack of nutrients, it's in a consistently warm spot with ec 1118 yeast and 1000g of sugar step fed in 500g increments
