Ready to pitch my fresh pressed apple juice with WLP775. Juice had sulfites added at the orchard and has off gassed 48 hours. I will be adding a bit of yeast nutrient, pectin enzyme and setting the temp controller to 70F.
My biggest question involves racking. I'll be using a conical with a trub dump valve. Many recipes I have read say to rack from primary into a secondary to allow the cider to clear. However, since I have a dump valve, I am planning to dump at least a couple of times to clear the cider this way. For there, I'll transfer to kegs and adjust to taste.
Done the way I mentioned, what will be the general time frame I'll tie up my conical settling out the cider prior to kegging?
