I have some cider which got too strong and killed off all of the yeast from its high ABV. Can I dillute the cider and then add more yeast? I am trying to carbonate it but I cant because the yeast died off. I dont have easy access to champagne yeast.

Well, you'd need to add more yeast I think.

I don't think I'd water it down and bottle carb. It would carb (after adding fresh wine yeast) probably, but then it'd be watery.

You could try bottling as is, and then serving it with Sprite or seltzer water if you want to add water to it. Or, make another batch with much lower ABV and combine them. I wouldn't try watering it down now.

Maybe instead of water, add more juice.

Why did you want such a high ABV?

I was just experimenting. In three of the experiments I added way too much sugar. They were my first three ever. I have certainly learned. I think Ill go for mixing it with another cider
