I'm guessing 2 to 3 weeks. Don't be in a hurry, as it gets better with age. Someone who bottle conditions will chime in here soon.

Schlenkerla said:Beerrific - I've been following this since January. I don't think anybody has tried that yet. If you don't have corn sugar carb with 2/3 cup of cane sugar. Its best to weigh out the sugar. 1oz/gal of corn sugar is recomended. You could do the same. It might be extra carbed though.
Schlenkerla said:Try the lactose it will work to sweeten slightly. Sweeter is more appley.
Next time try 1 can of concentrate per 1 gal of juice. Plus one or two extra of concentrate. 1:1 ratio results in 7% abv
Trying the juice is a gamble, unless you find somebody who did this.

Camping trip to Maine coming up in August, any chance I can take some carbed Apfelwein for that trip, if not, I guess I could take it still.

Looks like I'll be bottling tomorrow. Thanks, I was a little apprehensive what with the airlock still bubbling. Hopefully all that gas will escape in the process of transferring to bottling bucket and stirring in priming sugar. I really don't need exploding apfelwein bottle bombs.
Which is soooo easy to do...Schlenkerla said:Drink with caution, it can pack a wallop if you slam them.
