hello friends and neighbors,
I just finished my second batch of cider, (Edworts Apfelwein) and am still waiting for the first batch, (plain cider) to finish. i took a sample from the first batch and it was at 1.000 and still cloudy. it also had a slight vinegar smell and very tart taste. Am i supposed to stop the fermentation, or just let it finish on its own. I've have heard horror stories about ciders turning to vinegar and want to avoid it on my 5 gallon batch of Apfelwein.
thanks
