Morning,
Making some cider for the first time and was going to do a two gallon batch. From what I've read the sugar in the apple juice should be enough to be about 6%. How true is this? I plan on heating to 170 for a bit, but how long is good? Also since I'm only doing a two gallon batch, should I pitch half my packet of yeast or is okay to pitch the whole thing?
Thanks!
