Hello, new to the forums and also new to making my own booze!
My first attempt I did not use a kit but tried from frsh fruit. Unfortunately the fermentation was not sucsessful, so 2nd time round I would like to use a kit.
Im looking to make a high strength apple cider. About 10% would make me very happy. Im looking at this kit Here. Unfortunately it only produces about 5%, I understand if I bumped up the dextrose another 1.5kg I would get closer to 9%, BUT, can anyone advise me if the yeast will stand up to this? If it would, do I just add more dextrose everyday until the extra is used?. If not could anyone advise a yeast more suited for my needs, or even point me in the direction of another quality kit?
Thanks heaps,
Lazaah
