    Hello Everyone!

    quick question.

    I have 5 gal carboy with 4 gal of fresh pressed apple cider in it...

    Can I top it off with 100% apple juice?

    pros? cons?

    Yes, as long as the only preservative is ascorbic acid.

    Cool.
    How does this change the taste? Will it still be a decent quality cider when all is said and done?

    This is made with juice and it's very popular.
