Hello all, Quick sanitization question, If you are using sanstar cleaner can you use it on a racking cane? The directions say to let the sensate dry and don't rinse it but the inside takes a very long time to dry and kinda defeats the purpose of sanitizing. Is there a better way? Will the...

Thanks for the recipe! Definitely my next brew

Can you post your recipe? I'm more of a palate wrecker fan but the IPA is awesome as well.

Winemakers toy store one the northbound 35 service road in Carrollton (make a u turn at the beltline exit) will do cylinder exchanges if that is closer for you. The exchanges I've done have always looked well taken care of

Cool guys thanks for the input, I feel like I get a grapefruit taste because the first beer I tasted with citra was Widmer brothers Shaddock IPA with grapefruit peels in it, now I just associate it with grapefruit.

Hello all, I have a quick question about citra hops. I really like the citrus flavor that this hops brings to the party so I want to put a little in to my Runiation IPA clone recipe. Any thoughts on where to add them? I was afraid with the high AA content that I would have to put them in early...

Damn totally not fair!

It was 4.5 gallons apple juice, 48 oz or AJ concerntate, yeast nutrient and yeast for the recipe

I racked the cider 4 times over the frementation. How long should it take to carbonate so I can see if it was because it was flat?

Is anybody growing them? I want to grow some to make a Widmer Shaddok IPA clone and want to grow my own hops for it.

hello all, I just bottled my first Cider 2 days ago. When I bottled it I tried a taste of the flat cider. It had a weird almost smokey taste to it. Getting past the fact that it was 3 months of waiting down the crapper does anybody have any thought on what caused it? As far as details I used...

Hey suggestions on bottling? I don't have the equipment to keg it or cask it so what should I prime it in the bottle it with dextrose or DME?

Sorry went on vacation and forgot I already posted a thread about this :(

I have my first batch of cider well on its way. quick question, will the temperature effect the time an quality of the clarifying cider? will it be better to put it in the fridge to let the crap fall out of solution or is it fine at room temp? (my house is 78 degrees)

In that case I think I am gonna try to make a clone this fall!

Has anybody tried the woodchuck private reserve pumpkin cider?

I have a cider that has hit finial gravity, my thought is to put it in the fridge to clarify before bottling. Is that the right thing to do or will I ruin it? mMy house is set at 80* for the summer and I can't afford to set any lower, if that is too hot please give suggestions if you got any...

Has anybody ever tried making hopped cider? I know a Place in Maine does it but since I live in Dallas I can't get it. Anybody like it? made it ? tried it? let me know. Recipes would be nice too if you got it.

OK took a gravity reading it is currently 1.007. It is still bubbling a little the airlock bubbles once every 20 seconds or so. I'm hoping to rack it tomorrow.

I'm not totally sold on the plastic but I think I'll rack it when the yeast goes dormant and put it in the fridge to settle then bottle. The organic juice was pretty clear so It should be fine
