I lived in North Phoenix and in Tempe off of Baseline for several years before moving to South Florida last year and have a feeling you will enjoy it in AZ. It is hot as hell in the summer and your electric bill is gonna be horrible but there's alot to do there,especially if you end up in...

I did want to ask if you don't mind do i take my first reading with just the cider in the primary or after i add the sugar?,i thought it was just with the cider but the more i read i'm not sure anymore. Thanks again,you guys have been a big help clearing this up for me.

Thanks alot,i'm in no rush so i will let it sit in secondary until fully fermented to avoid bombs.

It helps alot,thank you very much!!. I figure i will throw some in the fridge but alot will need to be pasteurized on the stove i guess since they will be stored in the closet. I'm in no rush though with these so they will sit in secondary for quite some time.

Welcome,i'm just down the road in Cape Coral. I'm new here and to brewing myself so besides a nice welcome i'm afraid i can't be much help. Lots of good people here though that are happy to help.

Thats funny because i live off Skyline myself,you spelled Lani Kai the right way but it's a bit different these days. They have redone it and its a bit more upscale now but still gets the same kind of customers,mostly drunk 20 something year olds,lol.

Thanks guys for the help,i got a Test Cylinder today so once my setup arrives and i get it together i will use your info to get my starting measurment. I'm hoping to start a batch this weekend if all goes as planned.

I'm sorry if this has been asked a million times here before but i am looking for information on how to find out the alcohol content on cider. I am going to start my first batch next week and have read that there are some measurments that need to be taken at the beginning but i'm not sure what...

Wanted to say hello from Cape Coral Florida. I found this site while doing a web search on making Hard Cider and thought it looked like a good place to learn about homebrewing cider and other drinks. This will be my first time brewing anything at home myself.
