I just started my first batch of Cider 2 weeks ago. I went to a local apple orchard and bought 5 gallons of frozen pressed apple juice, added a campden tablet. After 48 hours the yeast was added (the brand escapes me). I am noticing that many people are adding some sort of sweetener. Is this necessary? if I don't add sweetener will my cider turn out extremely bitter?
If it is necessary I am going to use Honey - when should the honey be added.
I appreciate any help.
