I have Been dedicated to making cider now for a few years. My recipe is constantly evolving. I do side by side test on every run always tweaking it. This is the latest and greatest…
AppleKush is what i call it. Simi-Sweet Pub Style Cider %7.5 alc
6 Lg Bottles of Langers [(4 apple cider)-(2 Apple Juice) the difference is the apple veriety and flavor but both the same company and price].
681 grams of light turbinado sugar I use a triple beam balance scale to weigh.
400 grams of dextrose
Yeast Nutrient (Optional)
Nottingham Yeast
When racking add 2tbs malic acid. (natural acid derived from apples and pears)
Start:
OG 1.060
Finish:
1.010
finishes sweet due to unfermentables in turbinado and notty yeast no need to pasteurize add sorbate or anything.
The Process:
-Dump 4 containers of A.J. into carboy.
-Take the last two containers and dump them out half way.
-Take one half full containers pour A.J. into pot & pour in the terbinado turn the burner on low and stir until the sugar is dissolved add anti-sulfuric acid to that mix and pour into carboy.
-Take the Dextrose Pour that into the last container of A.J. followed by the Yeast. Lid it & give it a shake, let is sit for a few minutes then shake it again then pour into carboy.
if you give it a try let me know how it goes! thanks for reading
