3 questions today : I just racked my cider to secondary and will let it sit in the carboys for as long as it takes until it is Cristal clear and was wondering if it's necessary to add fresh yeast to each bottle if it has to sit for a long time until it clears off.
1 - Could the long period of waiting time leave me with insufficient active yeast to properly carbonate each bottle ?
2 - After how much time should I consider adding fresh yeast in the bottles and how much would be needed ?
3 - I'm reading different things from different web sites about the quantities of sugar to add for carbonation per 5 gallons and wanted to confirm that 3/4 cup of dextrose is the way to go right ?
Thanks,
