So I am about a week into my batch of cider and I just took a gravity reading and it's at about 1.001. I gave the sample a taste and it's pretty dry as I expected. I'm planning to prime it and make it sparkling when I bottle (which is a ways off) but my question is: if I want to sweeten it can I do that before I bottle, or will adding enough sugar to sweeten it just make bottle bombs? Should I just wait and sweeten it when it's served?
