So i went to the brew store the other day and there was a nice lady there that helped me out getting some stuff. I bought:
Bucket
Carboy
airlock
acid blend
Pectic enzyme
yeast nutrient
montrachet yeast
and campden tablets
I have seen this recipe
https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f25/man-i-love-apfelwein-14860/
I will be leaving town in three weeks and back three weeks after that so i want the batch to take about 6 weeks. Also, I want the highest ABV i can get in that time. so im pretty much wondering how i should alter the recipie to take advantage of the time and higher ABV
Whats the deal with the acid blend, Pectic enzyme and yeast nutrient? do i not need any of these?
also do i need to start out in the bucket or can i go straight to the carboy? I figure this might be better for my first time. I plan on just putting it back in the apple juice bottles when its done.
the lady told me to put a campton tab for each gallon of juice, should i do this or no?
thanks
