I only made a gallon batch, I drank half today after cold crashing. The other half I put in a smaller container with .2 oz of simcoe, I'll let it sit for a week or so then give it a taste

I started a batch yesterday. Is the malic acid necessary?

Negative, only needed if you want a more tart Macintosh taste.

I let mine ferment in Primary for five days at 70 degrees or till it reaches 1.010 then i transfer to secondary and let it sit till it reaches 1.005 which usually takes 3-5days then i transfer to bottling bucket mix with 3/4 cup of sugar pinch of dap and bottle then let prime for three weeks and enjoy. Yours will be fine, just on the dryer side which you may prefer. I would bottle it if i were you, but my partner and i like it pretty sweet so When brewed exactly to my instructions it makes what some have called a crispin clone and i highly agree! Im excited to see how the brown sugar turns out though!

Oregonbrewer, have you had any problems with bottle bombs using this method?
Elsewhere you refer to using stovetop pasteurization for your dry batches with champagne yeast, have you found that the Notty batches do not need this, or do you pasteurize all bottles and im just missing something?

I do not pasteurize because i have pop top bottles and i drink it within a month or so with help of course but if your using crown cap bottles and carbing then i would recommend stove top pasteurization just to be safe. hope that helps!

So I brought a case out to a party this last weekend. My friends parents owns a winery and his brother works at a brewery. They tried my applekush and were highly impressed. His bro asked me if a would share my recipe and also for a few bottles to show some people he works with he said he wants to try to brew it himself. His dad asked me to brew another batch so he could buy some off me and told me i should think about selling this... Lol anyways I'm considering taking this recipe off the internet and making it classified info!! Haha Jk, i love to hear stuff like this though, it makes brewing even more addicting!!

My new white oak barrel arrived today. I want to age some a.k. In it this weekend but how should I sanitize it. Can you use Star San in wood barrels?

 

[ultravista]

Has anyone used a Belgian yeast (e.g., WLP530)?

I asked about the Belgian yeast. Have you tried Crispin "the Saint"? It is fermented with a Belgian yeast. For mine, I used a mix of WLP530 and the dregs of two bottles of Crispin (the red label). One of the yeasts took over in a few days, fermented for a few weeks, and is now clarifying.

6 Lg Bottles of Langers [(4 apple cider)-(2 Apple Juice) the difference is the apple veriety and flavor but both the same company and price].

681 grams of light turbinado sugar I use a triple beam balance scale to weigh.

400 grams of dextrose

Question.... I know someone already asked... but I didn't see a reply...

Are these 64 oz bottles? ...... Making a 3 gallon batch?
only reason I ask is I want to do a 5 gallon and want to get the sugar proportions correct....

Thanks!
