Hi Darren ascorbic acid is just the posh name for vitamin C it doesn't prevent fermentation in the concentration found in fruit juices mate Carbon dioxide is heavier than air as you say so you can just leave the cap on loose so it doesn't explode no need for balloons 😉
Hi Robert, don't rush to finish it, it could take a week and a half. It won't go off due to the Co2 head in the jar preventing air from getting to it. Mine finished at 6.5%. Yours sound nice keep me posted on how it turned out.

If you have a warm greenhouse in summer the CO2 will help your plants grow better.
I had to look up what Ribena was on Wikipeda so what type of Ribena do you use the carbonated or uncarbonated.
Hi, I used a concentrate fruit juice, not carbonated. Hope that helps
