+1 on the saving some for secondary. Good advice for sure.

Many variations, e.g. the one you mentioned, have been tried. Some for better final taste after aging and some to make the product tasty in a smaller amount of time. Wanting a tasty product sooner eventually led me to create this recipe...

I doubt it will take any longer. It might even taste better if you like cysers. Yeast is notorious for being unpredictable though.

Sorry guys, fell asleep putting my kid to bed last night.

This is an easy one. I'd get drunk with this chick.

It's way too hot to brew in phoenix right now and will be for the next few months. I needed something new. Thanks for the great pictorial. I'm sold. Going by my LHBS today.

Wow, I have never seen anyone go harder.

Well, It's been a long time since I bottled the prickly pear mead and I am going to pull a bottle tonight and I'll post some tasting notes after I drink it.

Tough situation. I've added water to meads that were too sweet and had them start fermenting again but they end up just tasting like watered down mead in the final product. Your best bet may be just to serve it mixed with soda water for a sparkling mead. Cutting sweet meads at serving is...

I brewed 3 gallons of POM mead about a year ago and tried the first bottle a few months ago. The POM juice is expensive so I ended up doing 1 gallon POM juice in the 3 gallon carboy I had. The POM flavor is very slight and the slightness in flavor makes the natural flavor taste a bit odd but...

boy you said a mouth full. It makes a huge difference and a mellow tasting apple cider when you use fresh pressed.

what was the AA on your cascades? I generally prefer something around 3 or 4%

glad to see this baby is still a rockin!!!

make some graff, it's what I consider a perfect tasting cider. recipes section, cider recipes.

I used 2 sticks of cinnamon in a 5 gallon apple cider, it was way too cinnamon y. Apple juice fermented by itself just doesn't have the body or texture to support a spice like cinnamon in my opinion. I think you could get the apple pie liquor taste tho from some of the flavor extracts they...

Make some Graff, super easy and excellent results. You can't go wrong and it will open your eyes to the possibilities of malt in ciders.
