Best cider to date

posted by leaderofnopack on Cider

I used Motts apple juice and Nottingham ale yeast, ferment 12 days then 10 days in secondary.

Motts apple juice Brix 9.98.

Add 201 g sugar to boost Brix to 14.72.

Finished Brix 0.26 and ABV was7.88%.

I added 5.69 grams sugar to each bottle for a fizzy applewine

Yes I know my brewhouse needs cleaning but I'm busy.

i'm surprised how straight forward cider is after looking at potentially making wine last year too. this looks way more reasonable.

I use store bought juice, just make sure it has nothing but ascorbic acid. Anything else will kill the yeast.
