I can not drink Woodchuck anymore. Now that brew my own, Woodchuck is syrupy sweet to me. I dispose of it by blending it with my dry cider and the blend it really good. I would love to make my own super sweet cider and blend it with dry cider. Dry cider is much easier to make than semi dry cider and I'd imagine super sweet cider is easier than dry cider as well. I could make sweet cider, kill the yeast with cambden tabs, let it age and clear up, then blend it with dry cider (adding yeast to the equation in the process) bottle carb and bottle pasteurize. It sounds complicated but it really isn't. The possibilities are also there to spice one or both blends.
So how do I make a Woodchuck sweet cider? Just add sugar and kill it early? How much sugar and what SG would I kill it at?
