Gallons of cider made 2022

[Tancred the Brewer]

1G on simple cider made with fresh pressed juice and wine yeast, fermented bone dry at 12%ABV currently aging in bottles.

184.5+1= 185.5

4.25 gallons of SBAJ with 1 lb of brown sugar and 1lb of granulated sugar which may or may not have ended up as 1.5 gallons of Jack.

185.5+4.25=189.75

 

[friarsmith]

189.75 + 5.25 gal EdWort Apfelwein
195

Easiest Big “Brew” Day ever! If apfelwein doesn’t count as Cider, please adjust.

1 gallon filtered apple cider juice + 1 quart mashed blueberries + 0.75 lbs sugar + nutrient and repitched yeast.
Just put this together tonight.

195 + 1 = 196

On an aside, my already tallied batch of CranPineApple cider got racked to secondary but about 12 oz wouldn't fit. Drank it all and it was fruity and pleasant, even being so young.

 

[Lampy]

Just started 1 gallon with apple juice, 1 lb white sugar, repitched yeast, and nutient. My plan is to dry hop and then bottle condition this batch.

196 + 1 = 197

 

[jmferris]

After a ten year hiatus from brewing (exclusively beer), I am one week in to my first cidering. Store-bought pressed juice with 1.25lb of raw unfiltered honey using Cuvee. Hydrated yeast, added tannin, pectic enzyme, and nutrient at pitch. Juice to bring it to five gallons, because, why not? Had fermentation starting within twelve hours, and went from an OG of 1.065 to 1.000 in five days. Entering my third day of stable gravity and seeing some signs of clarification. Will be racking to the secondary next weekend for a bit of settling and conditioning ahead of bottling.

So...

197 + 5 = 202

Three more x 5 litres = 3.5 gallons... "Graham's English Cider" with Granny Smith and Pink Lady, "Red Delicious" with Red Delicious, Ballerina and Wild Apples, "Premium" with Cox's Orange Pippin, Wild Apples and Crimson Knight Crabs.

202+3.5=205.5

Really jealous about that "Premium". Love me some Cox's Orange Pippin... wish I could still find them here.

I've been lurking, on and off, here for years and homebrewing for years before I found this place. Never really bothered to register. I registered only because I wanted to help bump these numbers up a bit.

Just bottle 5 gallons of Apfelwein. I finished 1 gallon of cider. I have also finished a half gallon of mixed fruit wine, there's apple in it so I'm counting it. I have a couple other small batches going, but I'm not going to count a cider before it's finished.

205.5 + 5 + 1 + 0.5 = 212

 

[Beekeeper]

Keg in the keezer bottomed out just now. So I swapped in a fully fermented keg, and tossed 9 x 2-quart containers of Aldi's juice onto the yeast and clipped on a spunding valve. (Sorrry for the 1/2 value - with 4.5 gallons plus the lees it didn't look to me as though another 1/2 gallon bottle of juice would fit into the keg without hitting up against the gas in tube. I'll be sure to make up the .5 balance on the next batch!)

212 + 4.5 = 216.5

 

[Lampy]

Just threw together a gallon of apple juice plus 2.5 lbs of crushed red grapes. Hoping this comes out as an easy drinker.

216.5 + 1 = 217.5

 

[AZCoolerBrewer]

Got the smackdown for posting 2 gallons in the brew thread. Correcting my terrible transgression. Through the rhino farts stage, smells delicious now.

Glad you've found the right place. So...
217.5 + 2 ="219.5

 

[Ibrew2]

5 gallon batch:
Start date: 1/17/22
Juice: 4.5 gals, generic, 1.050
FAJC: (4) 12 oz cans, 24 oz total sugar
Wyeast wine nute blend: 1/2 tsp.
(1) pack Nottingham sprinkled in.
SG: 1.065

Also just bottled a 3 gallon batch of Edworts apfelwein per original recipe on 6/14/22.

So... 219.5 + 5 = 224.5

If the apfelwein counts, then 224.5 + 3 = 227.5 gallons.

The apfelwine counts.

 

[ErisMonk]

Just finished a small 1.5 gallon batch. I've been doing a bunch of smaller batches lately. I have started some more stuff, but I'm not going to count it until it's bottled. I think that's the idea here. No point in counting a cider until you're done with it.

227.5 + 1.5 = 229

 

[Pbjls]

Haven't posted for months. Just moved and could not really concentrate on wine and cider for 6 months. Left behind my orchard and will be using bottle apple instead of home grown. Have access to lots of fresh peaches.
Making up for lost time

 

[Pbjls]

I have 13 batches going at once. Black current cider Cherry cider mixed berry cider apple cider cran apple cider peach jalapeno cider peach wine plum wine blackberry plum wine peach Mead pair with warm spice cider blackberry pear cider peach raspberry wine.total 47 gallons229 + 47

Peach jalapeño cider? I'm intrigued...

Peach jalapeño cider? I'm intrigued...

First time making it. 3gallon batch. Added 12 halved jalapeno in primary and could taste both pepper flavor and heat. Will taste at racking into secondary and add more if necessary.

276+6= 282

 

[Lampy]

1.5 gallons of graff just began to bubble today.

282 + 1.5 = 283.5

 

[NTBeer]

An update on where we stand guys... the same thread last year was at 13 gallons at this point, and ended up at 297. Almost there!

 

[ErisMonk]

Just finished two gallons over the last week. I have a bunch more brewing to be split between me and some work buddies. So, there's more coming. We'll easily surpass 297 gallons.

283.5 + 2 = 285.5

 

[Ibrew2]

6/16/22: Started a 6 gallon batch of Edworts apfelwein using 4 gallons of generic and 2 gallons of Treetop juice and 1 pack of Montrachet (aka Premiere Classique) yeast and .4 lbs/gallon dextrose.

6/17/22: Started a 3 gallon batch of cider with 96 ozs of grape juice added for a apple to grape juice ratio of 3:1, .4 lbs/gallon dextrose and premiere Cuvée yeast, So....

285.5. + 6 + 3 = 294.5 gallons.

 

[Lampy]

Starting 1.5 gal of caramel apple cider. Used walmart AJ and 1.5 lbs of caramelized sugar with cider yeast. I am trying to decide whether to back sweeten with AJC or more caramel (spices will go in after primary).

294.5 + 1.5 = 296

 

[Ibrew2]

Has to be someone with an empty carboy earmarked for cider to put us over the 297 gallon mark!

[Dangeruss]

Just kegged a cider 5 gallons of sour cherry with cherry pomegranate concentrate dry hopped with mosaic used cuvee yeast 296+5 = 301

 

[ErisMonk]

Just bottled another batch.

301 + 5.5 = 306.5

 

[Lampy]

306.5 + 0.75 gallons blueberry cider
= 307.25

I finally decided to make a beer (extract brew) and threw a small batch of cider together during the boil.

 

[GratefulBear]

Rough year for me so far brewing-wise but 4 corny's of 1/2 WF and 1/2 local cider: 2 dry kegs with different Saison yeasts, 1 with Champagne yeast that is a For Shore copy (semi-dry with coriander and sea salt), and another dry with Saison that my foodie buddy made a spiced tea to add to it (actually turned out awesome). 307.25 + 17 = 324.25
