Early January, froze a bushel or so of leftover apples and pressed them whole, pitched a wild yeast from a batch of wine from local grapes. Got about 3 gallons.

 

[bracconiere]

damn, i just was scrolling through pages to find the how many gallons 2021.....i didn't realize my attempt at humor, made it still born...


13+10=23

 

[teddyearp]

Damn, I searched for this one two months back. Decided to quit buying and drinking beer and go all cider this year. Been making about a gallon a week, starting around . . . . um . . . er . . . maybe March?
Estimate 23, so 23 + 23 = 46

 

[Transamguy77]

15 gallons so far so 15+46=61

 

[bracconiere]

Took the trip to walmart, and got 10 gallons of juice....it was a great value!

10+61=71

What I use, one week at a time . . .

 

[teddyearp]

It's been three weeks since I last posted so:
71 + 3 = 74

I've also made one gallon for Jack and started another last weekend. Does that count?

 

[Transamguy77]

5 more gallons. 74+5=79

 

[teddyearp]

Another week another gallon.

79 + 1 = 80

 

[Dazmac]

93lt apple cider
46lt pear cider
23lt apple Berry cider
23lt apple strawberry cider
=185lt approx 49 gal
80 + 49 = 129

 

[Meadini]

6 gallons
129+6=135

 

[teddyearp]

Two more weeks.
135 + 2 = 137

 

[MtnGoatJoe]

- 3 gallons of weak Honeycrisp
- 3 gallons of Red Gravenstein
- Many more to go (my cousin bough land with 6 established trees on it)

3 + 3 + 137 = 143

This year was a great year for apples in Portugal. I had so many apples in my trees I didn’t know what to do with them, we eat we give to the animals and still tons falling off and going bad so for the first time I though we’ll why not make some cider. I collected around 200kg of apples which resulted in about 80 90 liters 22 or 23 gallons give or take.
I still have some trees that give apples a bit later on so I may decide to make another batch later on.
so let’s say
22 gallons (if it doesn’t go bad ) lol

 

[JimRausch]

143 + 22 from Parente94 + 7 from me
= 172
It took 10 buckets of mixed apples and pears to get that 7. I guess about 175 lbs. My arms are a little sore.

 

[Chalkyt]

All up, about 10 gallons of assorted single apple cider and blends from an overabundance of apples. It is fun tasting the difference. Scared the trees will bienially crop and not produce much next year. Wish me luck!

172 + 10 = 182

 

[teddyearp]

Been sick for the last two weeks so I think I have only done two more.

182 + 2 = 184

 

[NTBeer]

Getting a start on aging for next summer...

184 + 8 = 192

 

[JimRausch]

192
+ another 6
=198
Had 7 buckets mixed apples and pears this time, maybe 130 lb, so yield was a little better. SG=1.045

 

[bracconiere]

forgot to update...i just finished off 2 kegs of apple juice, got another 10 gallons ready to be kegged..

10+10+198=218

 

[teddyearp]

Bottled another two last weekend.

218 + 2 = 220

 

[MtnGoatJoe]

Pressed 27 gallons on October 23. Of that, 21 gallons will be used for cider.

220 + 21 = 241

 

[teddyearp]

Two ore weeks, two more gallons.

241 + 2 = 243

 

[Pbjls]

6 gal strawberry cider
5 gal cherry cider
3 gal pineapple cider
6 gal apple
3 gal cranberry Apple

23 cider
143 + 23= 266

 

[teddyearp]

Two more the weekend before Thanksgiving.

266 + 2 = 268

 

[CJ-3]

268 + 5.5 gallons of mixed berry cider

273.5 gallons

Are you guys alcoholics or commercial producers? It will take me some effort to finish the amount I made this summer. Still having some last summer's cider left.
I have 34 liters = 9 US gallons = 7.5 Imperal gallons.
About time the entire world goes metric. There is only one liter!

I made 2 gallons last year, and we went through it in a few weeks. It was the first good cider I've made, so this year we dove in and have about 13 gallons to ferment. I'm going to share what I can, and drink a bunch myself, but no, I'm not an alcoholic.
