In the world of cider making, generally you would try to find the cloudiest juice when using the cheap store bought stuff, but not so for graff.
My first batch was not good tasting, and frankly, it looked like liquid vommit. I used store bought, fresh pressed, TreeTop honeycrisp apple juice and it was barely drinkable. Switched to the three blend, clear looking, fresh pressed TreeTop apple juice, and i'm finally able to see what people are talking about!
I seriously thought I had messed up somewhere because the first batch was terrible. Take #2 is excellent! Nice bit of apple flavor, very clear, and easy drinking.
Anyone have any suggestions for lowering the ABV? I'm sitting at 8% and would prefer it to be around 5-6% so my wife would more enjoy it. The fermentation is too fast to stop mid cycle (using Nottingham Ale Yeast), so i'm not sure what to try.
