Hey everyone.
I acquired 5 gallons of leftover cider from a cidery (is that even a word?). Apparently, at the end of each batch they throw out the stuff at the bottom, which is what I've got. It's real thick and starchy tasting. So I'm wondering if anyone has any experience or recommendation for what to do with the stuff.
I'm going to refrigerate it and see if any of the sediment will settle so I can rack to another carboy. Can I cut it with water to thin it out? Will fermentation clear it up? Do you think it will retain the starchy taste? thanks a lot!
