I just started 2, 5 gal. batches on this past Monday. This is my first attempt at making cider so I asked a few people about what I should do. The general consensus was to add between 6 and 7 lbs. of sugar to each 5 gallon batch. I've been reading on here and it seems most people are using around 2 lbs./5 gal. What's gunna happen? Is it just going to have to percolate for a while?
I was thinking about 6-8 weeks in primary and probably another 2-3 months in secondary. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
