I started my first cider this year using 5 gallons of fresh apple cider direct from a local orchard. I did not filter out the solids prior to pitching the yeast. I racked the cider into a second carboy this morning and am left with about 2 liter of "waste". It obviously contains lots of cider pulp as well as dead and living yeast. It smells heavenly and started bubbling away nicely when I transfered it to a container. I hate to waste this stuff but I don't know what to do with it!!! I cant find any suggestions or recipes and my wife wont let it sit on the kitchen counter much longer! I'm open to anything from baking to brandy!
In addition, I'd like to keep a viable yeast culture for use several month from now. How do I go about it?
Here is the recipe I used:
5 gallons cider
1 pound each -white sugar, brown sugar, honey
4 teaspoons yeast nutrient
1 vial wlp775 yeast
Thanks for your help!
