Let's say I am using Mangrove Jack Cider yeast that supports up to 12% ABV.
If your SG was high enough to produce...oh let's say 18 % ABV...when the 12% was reached the yeast would drop out and leave 5% sugar?
This seems ok in theory but I don't know if it actually works that way.
I was more just curious if this is correct or if my thinking was flawed.
If it worked this way after the yeast dropped out you could rack and add Camden and Meta and have a sweet still cider with no backsweetening?
