Man there is NOTHING on this earth that goes better with a hot bowl of chili on a winter night then a mason jar of Apfelwein!!

Here's something that would go better, a golden viking drinking horn of apfelwein served by a blonde wearing only an apron.
You need to think big, Daniel-san.
You need work on your big thinking. Why just one blonde? Why not the entire Swedish Bikini Team?
so that I can be sure of what my coming steps are, here is what I plan on doing with the equipment I have at hand already and please let me know if this will result in issues/problems or if I'll be good to enjoy worry free...
my 5 gallon batch is sitting in my glass carboy since I started it in Dec 23 2011
I'll be leaving it there for the suggested 3 months
after which time, I will check it for clarity, if clear enough, I will just siphon from carboy to wine bottles, leaving the lees cake on the bottom.
I will then cork the bottles, and let sit for as long as i can possibly to make sure they all taste as good as can be
does that sound ok...I hope I got it all right, just want to be sure is all...thanks again everyone for all your help on this batch...
hey all, I was hoping that some experienced apfelwein makers could please go over my steps above that I posted earlier to help me make sure I've got everything right, and won't have any issues.
thanks in advance.

Anyone tried it? Might give it a go after my Apfelwein finishes up - just coming up on a month and a half.
So was it a combination of apple juice + cranberry juice or just straight cranberry? Either way I'm excited to see how it turns out.Waiting to bottle a gallon of cran apfelwein made from cider
First batch of apfelwein went into the carboy today. Can't wait to try this stuff after reading 100s of posts. Didn't have any cheap vodka for the lock so I used some wiskey. Any one else try using wiskey in their air locks?

I started a batch on the 29th, and the bubbles had really died down in the past week, but this morning I work up, and my house had fallen from 70 to 60 degrees over night... (first cold front in central florida in months) Have I killed what ever yeast was left, or did the cold just slow it down?
