I making a five gal batch of cider with safale s04 with a starting gravity of 1.060 so around 8% abv. It Will have been going two weeks in primary tommorrow. It's my first time using safale s04 so I'm unsure of the best fermentation time frames. I want it to taste sweet and not dry or like white wine when finished.
1) I want to know how much longer I should primary ferment for? (the cider has calmed down a lot from what it was but is still going kinda steady with tons of lees on the bottom already)
2) and how long should I secondary ferment for?
Thanks for all the help guys,
Kevin
