Hey Guys,
I'm new here and new to making cider. I want to double check and make sure my steps are right and that I have the correct ingredients:
5lbs white sugar
2 1/2 oz. Acid Blend
5 Camden Tablets (Crushed)
5 tsp. Yeast Nutrient
2 1/2 Tsp. Pectic Enzyme
1 tsp. Grape Tannin
1 Pack Champagne Yeast
1.Mix sugar in 1 gal. Cider in a pot on the stove until sugar has dissolved.
2. Add this and the other 4 gal. to my primary vessel
3.Add chemicals and stir in
Pitch Yeast at 65 - 75
So my question is :
1.Do I add the yeast in right away or do I let the chemicals and juice sit for about 24hrs??
2.What is the diffences in Yeasts??
3. Can I add concentrate juice at the time I start the secondary.
4. How do I use this sanitizer??
I have the first time jitters
