i've been brewing cider for about 2 years now and have used store bought apple juice, ranging from tree top to local farm produced apple juice/cider (pasteurized). i have access to an apple press so want to know:
what is the standard procedure when i comes to brewing with fresh pressed apple juice vs store bought? are there any necessary "ingredients" when dealing with non-pasteurized juice? i plan on using campden tablets and will be picky when using the fruit, being careful to only use healthy looking non-blemished/bruised apples and source the apples from a reputable source.
just trying to avoid any issues when using fresh pressed juice.
thanks!
