I think your math is wrong.Back of napkin math coming.....
I think your math is wrong.
He's using apple juice as the base, not water.
So off the top of my head I think it'll start around 1.055 (from the juice), the DME will add 15-20 points and the FAJC will add 20-30 points so it'll be around 1.095, ignoring the raisins.
Let me take a step back. The FAJC is for back sweetening. My base will be either a cider blend from a local orchard or just Kirkland apple juice.
My ABV should be around 7%. The ciders I make now are lacking depth and taste empty. I'm trying to find a good recipe to add something to the middle.
He’s not using apple juice. As my post mentioned and calculated - he is using frozen apple juice concentrate made much much weaker than the instructions (about 1/7th the normal mix rate).
