Ive been making cider or should I say more correctly apfelwein for 3 years now. I use 5 pounds ($2.25 from Aldi) cane sugar per 5 gallons fresh cider (40 gallons total.) Beginning SG is usually about 1.08 and ending 0.95. It packs to much alcohol around 12%. Too strong, head aches.
I would like to try corn sugar/dextrose. Pound for pound should be about 75% sweet to the cane. Where can I buy about 40 pounds at a reasonable price? Im in North East Ohio.
Thanks
Tim
