Hey all. Just got my brew kit in the mail yesterday, and had all the ingredients ready. So today and threw it all together. Here is my recipe (I think I used a lot of sugar...we'll see).
4lbs light brown sugar
1-2lbs of regular sugar
5 gallons apple juice
Nottingham yeast (soaked in water per instructions before pitching)
3lbs honey (not sure which kind, just some store bought stuff)
2tablespoons yeast energizer
4teaspoons yeast nutrient
OG-1.105
FG-TBD
Can't wait for this to get done!!! Any constructive criticism about my recipe? I have a glass carboy on order and I'm going to fill it with a raspberry mead next (still have a 6gal BB for the cider secondary).
