Cheapest Way To Make Cider

[tcapmidnoces]

I usually go out to the woods in the fall, pick a few bushels of apples, and then press them to make cider.
Leaving it out of the fridge for a few weeks will make it hard enough. Not bad for free.
Just have to vent the container so it doesn't pop. An airlock setup would help with that.

I understand trying to do something on the cheap but some of this is a little ridiculous.

Check out this recipe. It is easy, cheap, and delicious (and incredibly potent). It also scales really easily if you don't want to make a 6 gallon batch. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f81/pappy-s-pub-cider-408610/
I am making a second batch of this, but adding a cinnamon stick into the carboy a few days in.

Just wanted to say Kudos on this- It was a great guide for a 3 AM cider-brewing inspired Walmart run. My friends and I now have the 2 science majors working out the "experiments" and our business major keeping track of costs. SUPER useful to know about the taste issue- I noted a smell on one of the lip pieces after sanitizing and was wondering about that. I was going to put hard lemonade in them after the fall season :-$, certainly would have made for a surprise... And we are totally operating on a purchase-per-batch; but my first pick was a Hydrometer and some stronger Champagne yeast to bump up and keep track of the EtOH we were producing! Good luck, and thanks for motivating the broke College kids of the world to learn some "life skills" here.

This article is what got me to finally sign up for a HBT forum account. I loosely followed it and posted what I did differently here: http://omfgzorz.tumblr.com/post/72952042574/cheapest-way-to-make-cider giving full credit to the original author and linking back to his recipe.

I was into home brewing cider for a few years before I began doing beer. The easiest way to make cider is to get a hold of 10# of apples, any variety. Slice and dice the apples as you see fit, dump them into a five gallon bucket, fill with water, and let sit out-of-the-way uncovered for one month. It starts to look funky towards the end. Just strain and drink.
The other easy way is to purchase five 1-gallon jugs of 100% natural, unpasteurized, apple juice from a co-op, natural food store, apple orchard, etc. Pure all five gallons into a fermentation bucket or carboy and pitch one pack of dry champaign yeast. Attach an airlock, of course. The jugs of apple juice will cost $6 - $8 a pop, but you end up with five 1-gallon glass jugs in the end. Bottle or keg as you would a typical beer. Expect an ABV of roughly 5%.

Great Job. I think you could have saved a little more if you bought the frozen concentrate at $1.18 a can at least that is what it cost at my walmart. Check out How I done it At

That's how I do it... My cider journey started with grapes. I planted some grapes here in Germany and 2 years later I had a lot of grapes. I smashed the grapes to make jelly. I left the smashed grapes in the big pot I used overnight because I couldn't find my strainer. Next morning the juice-n-stems were already bubbling. "Hmm guess I could go for wine..." So I put it in a gallon glass ice tea jug and threw in some sugar for good measure. It turned into wine. Bad wine but still wine. I took some of the yeast after transferring the wine and put it into a gallon of martinelli's apple juice. Boom Cider. I've been making cider for almost a year now. When one jug has an inch of cider left I pull it from the fridge shake it up and dump it into a new gallon of cider. I leave the lid a little loose so it won't blow up (almost happened once!) and put it near the boiler for 4-5 days. Once it's as tart as I like it I put it in the fridge to slow down the yeast. It all settles to the bottom and clears up.
I have tried using several different juices with mixed results. I had one batch that turned out good but mostly it was not worth the juice. The Tree Top brand apple juice has failed me every time. While the Martinelli's is always good. This fall I will buy some fresh juice from local orchards and see what can be had.
