My parents have an apple orchard in thier town, so I had them get me 5 gallons of unpastuerized cider to play around with. Unfortunately, they were not able to bring it to me within a day or two. Now, it is going on 5 days they have had it and they are finally bringing it to me. I had them leave the caps on, but not tight to allow co2 to get out.
The vinegar part...how long would it take 02 presence to affect it enough? I'm not wanting vinegar, I'm wanting a "farmhouse" style cider. I figure I will taste it when they get here today and then add sulfite to kill the remaining wild yeast and then pitch some T58 to finish the fermentation.
Bad Idea....Good Idea?
Thanks
