Hi Everyone,
Does anybody have some thoughts on a basic recipe/approach for making something like Crispin Brut? My wife is a big fan, and I'd like to make something for her that is similar. A direct clone isn't the goal here, just something in that vein. We've tried a number of ciders together, and it's pretty clear that she likes them dry, with a nice clean/crisp apple flavor, and not so much of the barnyard/funk that one tends to get in Continental (French especially, Spanish to a bit lesser extent) ciders.
FWIW, I've never made cider, but I have plenty of experience with beer and the requisite equipment, cleaning/sanitation necessities, etc.
