So last night I racked my cider to get ready to bottle UpstateMike's caramel apple cider and I once again have come to a dilemma. To brew or not to brew. Any time I have an empty carboy, I feel as if it's a crime to let it sit there empty and with no purpose in life. After I bottle my BlackBerry cider next week, I will have another empty carboy and six cases of recently bottled cider sitting around.
I feel compelled to try yet another new recipe such as Graham's English cider or several others, but I keep having to buy bottles since the stuff has to bottle age. In an apartment and we don't guzzle the stuff fast so kegging isn't in the cards til we get a house next year. My buddy brews beer, drinks it, and has his bottles empty by the time he's ready to bottle his next beer. Does anyone else have this phobia of empty carboys?
