hybrid ciders? hmm wondering if anyone has tried to either malt, or hop, or both, a cider.....

sorry, i get weird ideas like this. you'll see plenty of these threads.

I think that I really like my Ever so Slightly hopped Apfelwein. It's on a 3068 cake. It has a nice little hop flavor, but it didn't carb for crap, I'm going to bottle pitch and we'll go from there.
Nest time...I'd like to add about a pound of Light DME to the 3 gallon batch.

I've fermented an Apfelwein with Weizen yeast and added 1.5 lbs brown sugar and it tastes great. :rockin:

It seems that no matter what you do with fermented apple juice it'll work.

Light brown or dark brown?

Not a cider but I added malt to a cyser. The recipe's posted in the mead recipe section. I steeped some crystal malt in apple juice and the mead came out with a caramel apple flavor. I don't know why it wouldn't work with cider.

Try mixing beer & cider to get an idea of how they work together. One of the advantages of kegging.
