I have some apple wine/cider im going to ferment out for 2 weeks. I wanted to back sweeten with minitemaid concentrate or original juice to get the taste of apple back and then bottle in 2 litter pop bottles and age for afew months and age (not enough glass bottles yet to bottle it all)..
I know i need to stop fermentation so the concentrate wont kick up fermentation... but will it age well if i use chemicals (sulthates and sorbate ) to stop fermentation and back sweeten with concentrate? Any issues? With stopping fermentation will sugar kick it back up during aging? I have never backsweeten, stoped fermentation or aged so its all new to me.
