Recipes 

sorry, another Newbie question...
Here is the recipe I am using for my first batch of cider with apples from my tree :

1 gal. juice
1/3 lb. sugar
1/2 tsp Pectic Enzyme
1/2 tsp Energizer
1 crushed Campden tablet
1 pkg (5 grams or .176 ounces) Champ. yeast.

I want to start with 5 gallons of juice. Do I have to multiply everything by 5, or is that excessive for some of the ingredients? From what i've read, I multiply everything, except for the yeast, which should be sufficient. Just wanted to check with the experts to make sure!

Thanks,
Ian

Definitely multiply the juice and the sugar by 5. As far as the energizer and ur chemicals, I would follow whatever the directions to those tell you, typically they are by the gallon. so yes, multiply that number by 5 also.
