Hey guys, super new to home brewing (Santa got me a cidermaking kit where you use store bought juice.) I’m 3rd batch in, first 2 were super dry (as expected.)
I’ve read a decent amount about backsweetening and it kickstarting secondary fermentation, how to stop it, fear of ‘sploding bottles, etc...
My question is about bottled (pasteurized, and assuming therefore nonfermentable) pure juice for backsweetening and flavor adding.
Looking at the Simply Nature (Aldi brand) organic 7 super fruit blend (will try to add photo.)
Does anyone have any input or experience with using juice, or what to expect, what if anything I’d need to add if using, what to be fearful of, etc?
(I’d really appreciate no “be careful of” posts without an explanation of why whatever happens that I need to look out for..as I’m still familiarizing myself with the basics and process before moving on to a more advanced method. )
thanks for any help with my first question and first post.
