Does anyone have any recipes and or advice on making a good almond wine? I tried one once and it was amazing. I would really like to make one myself.

Ok sweet thanks to all who posted. It was very helpful.

I Sanitize my brewing equipment with idophor and always worry that it's going to give off flavors to my beer due to it's smell after I sanatize my carboy. Can the idaphor smell give off flavors or am I just worried about nothing?

I'm thinking about picking some apples and pears from a local tree, juicing them with my juicer, and fermenting them with MA33 dry premium wine yeast from Vinters harvest. My goal is to make 5 gallons. This is my first cider and would love some pointers. What should I shoot for for an og?
