Here is my planned recipe:
5 Gallons Member's Mark Apple Juice (Sam's Club) - No preservatives
4 Cans Old Orchard Frozen Apple Juice Concentrate - Only Malic and Absorbic Acid
Yeast Nutrient - LD Carlson Brand package says 1tsp per gallon of must(so 5 tsp)
Cider Activator Wyeast ACT4766
3lbs Frozen Blueberry's
I will be putting at least another 3lbs of blueberrys in my secondary.
My plan is to bring the concentrate and frozen blueberrys up to room temperature(or close to it) and then throw the blueberrys in the blender and then mix it all together with the 5 gallons of juice in a 6.5 gallon carboy.
I plan to use a stainless steel racking tube with wire mesh on the end so hopefully I will not have any trouble with the blended up fruit.
Before I start am I missing anything? Are any of my amounts out of whack? I am really only concerned with the yeast nutrient because I have not used it before.
