Uses DME.. lots... to jump up the alcohol and I guess give it an additional flavor but yet no boiling.
5 gal apple juice
10#'s Golden Light DME (Briess)
1# sugar (called for cane but the person used Turbinado)
1# Honey (Wildflower honey)
WL sweet mead/wine yeast
+ various other spices in the 2nd fermentor
Would boiling this be better? And with all the DME will this fit into a 5 gal BB or do I need to use a bigger fermentor (not sure if the DME will cause the volume to increase much)? Also thinking of using a yeast nutrient thing I bought to maybe help this out.
Going to try this out tomorrow or saturday and the planned time for being ready is around end of may.
I believe these are the periods of time I have it set for.
