So about 4 weeks ago some neighbors and I got together and scoured the area for apple trees, knocked on many doors and loaded up. We pressed somewhere in the 300-350lb range of apples on a press we rented from MUD (missoula urban demonstration project-if your town doesn't have one you should start one!) and wound up with about 18 gallons of the sweetest cider i have ever tasted. we canned and bottled about 8 gallons and stuck the other 10 into the carboys with lalvin D-47. Nothing else added. We bottled about a week and a half ago and had a taste then and the stuff was amazing! a glass and a half had me a little dizzy so this stuff is STRONG. Can't wait for the finished product!
