    Can I add anything to my finished kit cider to add flavour???

    I'd like to get some citra hops plants. Currently have a couple of nugget hops. Pretty potent.

    Good For You!!!! That's awesome. Congrats. Big things ahead. What did you end up bruising for a press and scratter. It's addictive. You'll be foraging for apples in no time after you realize what you can accomplish! I just planted 77 trees and grafted another 250.

    So the 71b got really sulfury around 11%. Nutrient didn't help either....the yeast was stressed....so I pitched ec-118 Have to say that the 71b sure reduced the acid in the juice though to the point I had to add some acid blend to blaring the ph down. All good now. Still fermenting and at 1.002

    I'm Done... DIY apple grinder rant

    We are there too. Frustrating. We've given in for the year. Did you try again to make it work?

    Full Hard Lemonade recipe

    It's 10.00 here. I don't use much of it so generally not a huge problem. Thanks for the note!

    Full Hard Lemonade recipe

    I'd love to try it but for me in Canada I'm looking at 250.00 for this recipe. The DME alone is 100.00. Any good online sources?

    Great cider before super kleer - now tastes medicinal

    Help. A couple of weeks ago I did a final racked from a fresh pressed cider I started in september and then added some superkleer. It was/is a lovely cider (nicest to date) but now has this horrible taste. I just put it in the keg to chill. Do you think that the taste will change? Maybe...

    How much campden/k-sorbate to stabilize a 100% finished ferment?

    Sounds about right! If you had not sulfited previous to this what aprox would be your ppm at 1/4 tsp? 50ppm?

    Weak cider from juice- suggestions

    I bought some of that apple concentrate while in the US. Agreed that too much is not good and if you add enough to really TASTE the concentrate it's too much. Just a tad to elevate the natural flavours. I've only tried it by the glass. Clearing now and thinking about adding fruit and letting...

    Pappy`s Pub Cider - Award Winner!

    Paps - Just started another batch. Just realized I pitched 71b-1122 instead of ec1118. Do you think I can let this do it's thing and then follow up with the ec1118 when 71b starts to hit its alcohol tolerance? 71b is 14% but may push through to 17 or so from what I have read. Thoughts...

    So how did you flavour your blackberry? Bet it was magic I've tried cinnamon and oak a few times and it's horrible on my tongue. Almost undrinkable. Love cinnamon and love oak but not concurrently!

    Maltodextrin? What does it add? I do add it to beer but never tried it with lemonade.

    Strawberry tends to lose its flavour in primary. Secondary might be better. Even sweetening with frozen strawberry concentrate. It's good that way. I've tried it.

    Caramel Apple Hard Cider

    I've also used s04 and s05 and there's always a hint of beer and it can be slight. I don't like beer either so any hint is a no go. Like anything else palate related....it's really a personal thing.

    Caramel Apple Hard Cider

    I used notti once. Only cider I've tossed out and LOVE mangrove jacks m02. When temp are you using notti at? I've actually tried using it twice and didn't like it either times. I ferment at about 55-60f I think M02 carries lots of apple flavour over but does dry it out. We backsweeten...
