Hi Guys,
I did a bit of reaserch before starting my first cider and there seemed to be two schools of thought on this and a multitude of recipes.
If juicing real apples instead of bought juice do you need to add yeast?
My fermenter currently has 19 litres of crushed and squeezed apple juice with about 3 litres of cold water with 1 cup of sugar disolved in it. I only added the extra water and sugar to help bring the OG up a bit to 1.036. Was hoping for a higher OG.
Do I need to add Yeast or will it ferment out OK with out it?
