Hehe. I dunno how I missed this :D. Yeah 25 to 30 gallons of cider is a lot imho. Don't get me wrong I like cider, but I have over 4 cases now and 2 more in the secondary and maybe 2 more (I gotta check lol, it's just been sitting in my fridge the one 5 gallon container since October so I am not sure what it's doing!).

So what's the update. JackLalane getting painful? :D

Yeah 1.047 is what I have hit 2 years in a row now.
 
I'm done. About 4 hours juicing in total and Jack is fine.

I'm at around 25 gallon.

I'm a little worried with one batch. I used Camden tablets and it still started fermenting in it's own without additional yeast!

I sent the rest of the apples to an animal sanctuary. They wasn't happy when I asked if I could take one of the pigs off their hands. I think they knew what I wanted it for!

LOL. "suuueeee! Here pig pig pig"

Orf, I fermented a natural batch this year. It is clearing now, takes a long time! But so far....(thankfully!)....it hasn't turned...

Well 3 of them have stopped producing CO2 a I've measured the gravity at ~1000

The 4th hasn't started yet. I'll give it a shake later.

I saved the yeast from the natural ferment I did...food for thought. :)
