Hi! Thank you for taking your time reading this.
I am making my very first batch of Cider, I added in some sugar and pureed strawberries for flavor, used 100% juice with no additives, my OG Reading was 1.070. I used a5 gram packet of Red Star Premier Blank yeast and right now my batch is fermenting in a closed bucket with a blubber on it.
I think I am pretty well set! I am just wondering what should I expect! My kit is a hand me down forma friend that moved away, I have a siphon and some swing top bottles (mix of 500 ml and 1000 ml bottles, enough for my batch).
I got myself some "Brewer's Conditioning Tablets" to add some carbonation.
Si yeah, how long do you think it will need to rest? Should I kill the fermentation once I reach a good ABD? (Thinking 1.010 so I end up with a sweet cider). Will my conditioning tablets do the trick, or are these no good? What should be my next steps?
Thank you so much!
