Just an update. After 2 1/2 weeks
Organic cider at 10.4%, tastes great but cloudy
Honeycrisp at 10.6%. Clearing nicely, tastes great as well.
I am shocked that Notty went this far.
I am cold crashing these in fridge now, will add sorbate and bottle when it clears. I'm not even back sweetening, it tastes great right now!
The difference in flavor from this vs previous batches w EC1118 is remarkable. So much more residual sweetness and apple flavor. I will def be using beer yeast from now on!!
SWMBO and I like both batches as is, i know ciders get better with age look forward tasting these over tine (if i can wait that long) next gallon I will try organic with 1 lb brown sugar dissolved into it.
