It carbed up nicely. Tastes pretty good. It’s a little “dull” tasting for lack of a better word. Not as “apple-ey” as I was expecting. But it is certainly drinkable. I think if I added some tannins somehow and a bit of citric acid, then it would “pop”.

Well after a little over 3 weeks in primary, fermentation was done. FG was 1.006. I racked into secondary to let it settle a bit. There was a lot of sediment at the bottom of primary and there is more building up in secondary even after only one day. It is still pretty cloudy. Tasted a sample...
