    [Melomels] Are campden tablets needed before pitching the yeast?

    TLDR: In a melomel with supermarket fruits, are campden tablets needed to remove the wild yeast before brewing? Hey all, After looking at recommendations in my previous post, I decided to do my first mead with berries (strawberry, raspberry, blackberry, and blueberry). I am planning to get...

    Any ideas for a 2 month (beginner) mead/melomel?

    Hello all, I am planning to do some mead in a couple of weeks and would like to have it ready for Holidays season in December. This is the first time I will do mead, and second time doing any brewing at all (I bottled my first quick crabapple cider some days ago). I was wondering if some of...

    Add a cup of unfermented cider to the brew for a second fermentation?

    Thanks! Yes, I added around 3/4s of the yeast. And currently the brew is almost not fermenting at all. However, each day its becoming more clear. I understand that you say to wait a week or two before taking three-day-away gravity measures. But what do you mean by: "but on a ~1 gallon...

    Add a cup of unfermented cider to the brew for a second fermentation?

    Oh, this sounds like good advice! Some questions: Isn't sanitizer recommended to be used on the material before starting? Maybe the error is in "sterilizing", it should be "sanitizing"? I used this cider yeast. So far it appears to be doing the basic job (fermenting!). Not sure of the end...

    Add a cup of unfermented cider to the brew for a second fermentation?

    Hey all, I am following this recipe for my first cider. Basically: Get the juice. Add Campden tablet, wait for 48h. Pitch the yeast. Up to this point, I have no questions with the recipe. However, before pitching the yeast it says to: Save a cup of the unfermented cider in the freezer. After...

    [Q] Is this pulp or something else in my brewing cider?

    So that's pulp right? Thanks!

    [Q] Is this pulp or something else in my brewing cider?

    TLDR: is this normal in a brewing cider? I think it might be pulp. I did not filter a lot my crabapple puree. It seems to rise from the bottom, due to the bubbles, and slowly fall again. Hello all! First post here in the forum. Some days ago I started to make my first cider as a quarantine...
