I'm new to this site/forum and fairly new to making ciders, I've only watched my bro turn empty carboys into magical cider. I don't have anything for carbonating yet but I would like something to... uh... sample while my first serious batch is being made. Question one is would this be a good cider un-carbonated, question two is what exactly is apple pie spice, and do you happen to know exactly what yeast you used (i have some steinberg-geisenheim left over from a blackberry wine I just made)?

My first cider was just thrown on top of a yeast cake from a White Zin that I made for my hunny bunny. I made 2 off of this yeast cake. The 3rd cider I made I used 3068 Weihenstephan Weizen™ from WYeast. It turned out FAR SUPERIOR to the other 2 batches. The yeast stayed in suspension which dosn't bother me but it retained a TON of apple flavor compaired to the other 2. There wasn't much clove or bananna flavors like I had hoped though. =( The point of the first batch of cider I made is I had this yeast cake and thought it shouldn't go to waste. If someone is thinking about making a cheap ass cider why not just toss some apple cider right on any random yeast cake. in 2 weeks you'd have a 6.5%abv beverage for under $15.00!!!!!! IMHO it's just a realllly good hooch!!! ![]()
