this sounds fabulous. Will to give this a try

Anyone try to make their own extract or start with a homemade root beer base from sasparilla/sassafrass ect?

and how did this turn out for you??

Could you cut back the water and steel the ingredients for more concentration? Did you find a solution?

Anyone try adding either to primary or secondary some real lemon juice or lemon Rind (without the white pith)? Perhaps boiling some lemon and then dissolving the sugars ect before adding to primary?

Starting this with out the malt. Keeping it gluten free. Added two more cans concentrate and 4 lbs sugar. Gave me an gravity of 1.06 using Minute Maid lemonade. Will report back when completed!

Does this need malt extract? What does it add?

I haven't checked the gravity yet - need more sanitizer - but I noticed last night that one of my ciders has small little bubbles. Doesn't seem to be much airlock activity if any (but haven't watched it like a hawk) but bubbles accumulating in the carboy neck. I started this cider in Sept...

I bet people love it!! Just putting another batch on tonight. Half fresh press and half not from concentrate juices. also added some whiskey barrel chips soaked in rum to my last batch and what a difference!!! Makes it much more complex and dare I say sophisticated tasting! (and it was...

Did you leave this in the barrel for 4.5 hours or did you empty the barrel in 4.5 hours?

Paps...Have you ever added tea bags or tannin? or are you getting that from aging barrel?

What was your final gravity using WLP-775?

sanibrew/bdiversol or the pink stuff (called different things in different places it seems) and thanks

Package states 3g/L. Sanibrew/diversol Once mixed, how long is it active/effective for?

Mines at 1.015 16C Racked to slow it down so it's not moving as quickly now

There is a pineapple apple apple cider in the recipe section. I have it on the go currently. So far so good. About half way through primary :)

I will be adding FCAJ and maybe some other sweetening agent if needed but even with that it's not going to be grand. It's not very dry/sour...just bland. Think I'll try something bold and I'll definitely report back.

Ha ha. Almost. North of the border. Shipping to Canada is 35.00 usd so with exchange rate (which is horrible right now for us) it's about 60.00 cdn. Have some friends coming up from northern US in June. Maybe I'll have them bring some up for next years batch (or just suck it up and buy some...

Anyone try or have success with flavoured teas as an addition?

Freeze concentrate. I like it. Yeast used WL 775 so a good yeast The alcohol is around 6-7% so it's not weak in alcohol just lacking flavour. It was a cheap juice. Allen's brand. Added acid and tannin which helped a little but not a ton. Just bland flavour overall. Maylar - need to...
