hey guys and gals. I am new to brewing and cidering. I apologize for not reading the sticky's yet. I was too excited to read after registering!
My first cider is in a gallon jug. I used a full packet of nottingham yeast from an ale kit. The cider I used was a pasteruized cider from Whole foods ( first experiment)
How do I get more clarity from my cider?
I have heard a lot about aging from Ocktoberfest beers and ciders. How long is "good" what exactly does it do?
I saw a cool English cider recipe. I would like to learn as much as I can so that I can get few 1 gal batches and let them age till september/october for College football season Is there a 1 gal recipe for this? any good ones for a sweeter spiced cider?
When would I add spices? how long do you add them for?
Also how/when would one use brown sugar or maple syrup in a recipe to bring out these flavors?
Thank you all in advance. I look forward to many posts and great answers.
