The last bag of grains I bought had a best by date two years after the bag fill date.

I'm doing a cherry cider: 2 gallons apple juice and 1 quart tart cherry juice. I took a gravity reading and can barely tell there's cherry. When I bottle would priming with more cherry juice increase the cherry flavor? How much?

F G is 1.001.

This morning it's burping every 2 seconds.

Pitched yeast 90 minutes ago

Tart cherry cider.

This go round I'm sticking to juice: 2 gallons honeycrisp juice,,1 quart tart cherry juice and Laflin 71 b yeast. Years ago I had access to a tart cherry tree and used them. I think I used 1 pound per gallon.

Tart cherry cider

I have a food grade bucket with a lid that doesn't snap on tight. I'm thinking about just setting the lid on loose and fermenting that way. Any problems with that?

One pack in three gallons at 1.055. The wort was at 63f and ambient was 62f. It was bubbling through the airlock in ten hours.

Three gallons of Baltic Porter.

How thorough your cleaning and sanitation is can effect how long.

They don't have the lowest prices on line, but if you only need a couple of dry yeast packs they put them in an envelope and mail for free. I just got three packs of yeast to use in cider that got to be three days after ordering.

I've used dry yeast over four years past the best by date with no problems.

That's on top of what I already have.

This is in addition to the stuff I already have.

Now I'm set up for the next 18 months.

Just got these: ordered Wednesday, got them Thursday. I give them 4.75 stars. Minus .25 star because there's no budget shipping option. I would have had no problem with waiting 3-4 days for shipping.

Cashmere 👍👍. I just bottled my batch for my homebrew club's ingredient draft. I used cashmere and it came out great.
