I am pretty new to brewing cider. I like the idea of being a naturalist. I don't like the thought of adding metabisulfite and different chemicals to brew... I'm sure it's okay, it just feels kind of funny to me to put any chemical substance into my brew.... I know some of these things are natural but once they've been processed by man they just don't seem so natural anymore to me. But I was in Trader Joe's the other day and I saw an organic cider. It was Samuel Smith's organic cider...
My question is what makes a cider organic and what would make it not organic?
When I rack to my secondary I add fresh juice... And when I back sweeten I will have natural juice and nothing else. Does that make my cider organic?
