This was a great write up/help for a new brewer. As it turns out, I am doing the same beer, just not a kit. I actually had the ingredients list and went to the LBS and got what I needed. Have been doing lots of reading and putting together my brew equipment and decided it was time to make the...

Yup. thanks. :mug:

I did some timing and noticed this is burping the airlock about one every 3 min 24 seconds

Thanks. No, i didn't add any nutrient. Can i add some 'energizer at this point of this batch?

Any comments on saving this batch would help. The very little yeast i added back to this hasnt done much visably over the first 24 hours. I get about two 'burps' from the vapor lock per hour, so far. Should i just get another batch of yeast and add the whole thing. At this point is still...

They were long descriptions of my first two batches of cider

Thanks everyone. About to post pics of my cider that in initial ferm. Still waiting for my other tthreads to get approved.

Thanks!

Maybe I am not as 'traditional' as some here, but my first cider was a woodchuck amber on tap. I really loved it. In fact that was what hooked me on cider. Tried Hornsby once and hated it. When Angry Orchard came out, I thought it was a bit more tangier than WC but liked it too. Now I am...

My first two batches and I am trying both of those. Can't wait to see what happens.

can anyone send me a link to how to post pictures? I was using the little insert image icon above and was trying to use the link from my google photos album, but not sure that works.

Thanks. I am also making posts in the cider forum to document my progress on my first two batches.

Ok, again a noob here. My first 'rescue' batch, you can read about in my other post. So, on to my second batch. This time with a bit more knowledge, I already seem to be having better results. Again, I decided to try with some store bought apple juice. Wanted to try and keep cost down until...

Wasn't quite sure how I wanted to write this post. I have recently started trying to brew hard cider. I just started a second batch. I decided to break that into a separate post, so this post will be about my first batch. So my first foray into this, after doing a bit of reading, was by...

Hello everyone, my name is Creston, or Patrick if you prefer. I reside in Escondido, Northern San Diego, Ca, USA. I have joined the forum to help me in my foray into brewing. I started brewing a couple of years ago, with a gift of a Mr Beer Kit I received for Christmas. I only did a couple...
