Just made a gallon with Murray's Cider!
Did you strain out the sediment, or no?
Mine was organic, unfiltered too. UV pasteurized, I believe. Central Market brand. I am definitely bottling from the primary next time!
Remember the 3 P's....

It's hard to wait. If your apfelwein is still dropping lees in the bottle, it can be unsightly or unappetizing. I drank a wonderful blueberry shiraz that was 2004, and it was sooooo good...until on the last 2 glasses, a bunch of sediment fell out. I knew it was safe, but I didn't want to drink it! Clearing is for aesthetics...it's one of the elements wines are judged on in competitions. Like I said, if you don't care, then go for it. I, for one, am waiting.
