Hi. I'm going to attempt my first hard cider this month with unpasteurized, unfiltered cider from a local orchard. I'll most likely be following EdWort's Apfelwein recipe with less dextrose, and a concern of mine is the clarification of the cider.
Should I:
rack to a secondary after four weeks and let sit for a few months?
add pectic enzyme?
cold crash the cider?
anything else I haven't thought of?
As it stands I am not equipped for filtration. I'd love some input on this subject. Thanks.
