  The batch I made wasn't tart at all - very sweet in fact - not surprised with the malt. Not
  really my kind of drink to be honest :( I won't be making another batch!With regard to the tart
  taste dissip...

  It is ever so slightly cloudy and has a ever so slight yeasty taste. I have posted a new topic

  It's drinkable now compared to some of the cider I've brewed LOLTo be honest though, I'll give

  Yep, give it another week or so. Since it's still up around 1.020 there's probably a lot of
