Hi. I have a 22 lt batch of Cooper's Amber Ale kit that is about to be bottled and I plan to use the sediment left in the fermenter to brew some cider.
The recipe I plan to follow was brewed the same way and the ingrients are:
14 lt store bought green apple juice
4 lt apple concentrate
250 gr sugar
The recipe advises yeast agitation time to time. The fermentation is supposed to bring the OG of ~1058 to FG of ~1000 and I plan to bottle with 3 gr of sugar per 50 cl bottle.
The first cider attempt was something in between a successful batch and a failure but I drank it all. I really want to achieve better results with this batch or else I might have throw the idea of brewing cider altogether.
I have a refrigerator where I can store all my bottles and I don't plan to pasteurize as I am afraid of bottle bombs and my wife ending my brewing career.
So, any advice, comment and insight are welcome.
Would this sediment be too much and do you think I will end up with bottles of cider that smell of yeast (that was the case with the first batch).
Thank you in advance.
Cheers.
