I'm planning on making 15-20 gallons of hard cider in the next week. I'll be making 5 gal batches back using bottled apple cider(pasturized,no persvatives) and utilizing Red Star Champagne yeast.
I know I could simply "dump" the yeast packet in, But I have a stir plate and would rather become proficient with using it to make starters for all our brewing sessions.
My question is this...Do I use Apple juice,DME or hot water to add the yeast packet to? I appreciate the help in advance and am learning so much from HBT!
