So my apple pie spiced cider has finally cleared and it's time to bottle! The FG is at.996 !!! When I first started I went to my HBS and he gave me a million little baggies of various things I would need throughout my adventure. Right now my bottles have about 1 oz. of Sodium meta sitting in...

So I started making my Spiced Cider about a month ago and it's now clearing so I knew it was time to start a new one. I told my wife that this time she can make it whatever flavor she wants...so she picked Apple/Pomegranate. How does this recipe sound? 3 gals Welch's White Grape/ Pomegranate...

Okay so now that I know my cider is fermenting nicely; I am wondering how much sugar I should add? I added 3 lbs of table sugar to 6 gallons of cider and took a gravity reading after the sugar was added and it came out to be 1.070. Is that all the sugar I should add or should I throw in...

Okay so I just put in 6 gallons of Apple Cider into my primary fermenting bucket. My LHBS told me to let it ferment in there for about a week then rack to my carboy. The bucket is just covered by a tight lid and I have a blanket wrapped around to keep a semi-constant temperature. To the 6...
