    Apple All Grain - Do I need to boil the organic apple cider?

    Hi am just brewed an all grain - soon to be apple ale. Everything went well but I am adding a gallon of organic apple cider when racking to the secondary. Do I need to boil the gallon of cider before I put it in or do I just dump it in the secondary? Thanks in advance!

    First batch... Forgot the dry malt extract... Suggestions?

    I was brewing an EPA beer with a buddy of mine and I forgot to put in the dry malt extract. We did not notice until we had it in the primary fermenter. It is bubbling like crazy. Is it worth continuing to let it ferment? or should I just start over?
