[brewinfool]

ok...add 6 more gallons

althea's apfelwein

6 gallons 100% apple juice
2 lbs brown sugar
1 packet lalvin ec-1118

may or may not back sweeten w/ honey and apple concentrate when done.
if so i have some potassium sorbate to whack the yeast 1st.

i'll post in a month or so to let y'all know what's shakin'.

edit: so, that's 1053...because i added some concentrate and water to round it out to a nice 6.3 gallons

[Chris K]

hi

i have a 5 gallon batch fermenting now...but it is modified using Lalvin EC-1118 yeast since it was the only wine yeast my LHBS had at the time.

cant wait to try it.

i asked my HBS owner to stock some of the Montrachet cause i have a feeling i'll be coming back to this alpfelwein recipe often from all that i have read about it in this forum.

btw...this is my first post. hello from philly!

[KSMICT]

Other than resistance (% ABV that the yeasties can tolerate) what noticible changes wold different yeasts have?

I assume:cross: a less resilient yeast would die off at a lower ABV, leaving a sweeter end product, but are there other factors that I am ignoran of?

N00b here, please no flames.

 

[sAvAgE]

A whole 23 Litres worth

:rockin:

I have it scheduled to go into a secondary for cleaning at the end of May

Can't wait!

I originally wanted the montrachet but It was suggested that I try this one instead 4783 Rüdesheimer

Well we shall see.

Recipe

23 Litres Presidents Choice Pure Unfiltered Apple Juice
1.1 KG Dextrose
Wyeast 4783 Rüdesheimer

So I come up with a running total of:
1074

 

[Beer:30]

1,079

 

[sAvAgE]

This must be great stuff I know I am looking forward to it

 

[toasty]

Just put a 5 gal batch in the fermenter

Total:1084

 

[CAlexander]

Man, I need to catch up. I just finished my third 5 gallon batch and haven't posted in this thread. So that brings us to 1,099.

 

[Kayos]

5 more for me

And I get to say first one over 2K!!

2004 gallons!!!

 

[Beerrific]

Been hitting the apfelwein a little early, huh?

 

[Whelk]

5 more for me

And I get to say first one over 2K!!

2004 gallons!!!

Yeah, that's some shaky math.

 

[brewinfool]

2k+...very cool

 

[toasty]

5 more for me

And I get to say first one over 2K!!

2004 gallons!!!

Yeah umm, try 1104 but close, real close

 

[Craig5_12]

HAHAHA, it's 7:30am over here and I've had my coffee so I think I can do this math....
I just put my 2nd 5gal batch together last night. Used 2 cans of concentrate and no extra sugar, we'll see how it turns out.....

1104 + 5 = um........1109.....right?

 

[evanmars]

5 gal.

1114

 

[EdWort]

Been hitting the apfelwein a little early, huh?

It happens to the best of us!

 

[Kayos]

Dam I am an idiot. Um...what those guys said...

 

[Onescalerguy]

+5=1119(again again)
Cheers

 

[brewinfool]

1119 +5 more = 1124

just made some on 4.25

didn't wanna wait till the 1st one was gone

 

[Beerrific]

1124+5=1129

Can't wait to join the rest of the world and have a glass of this in a month or so.



Oh wow, I just realized, that is my birthday 11-29. Ha.

 

[cha ngo]

1129 + I just made my second 5 gallons:
1139

 

[fretman124]

ok...add 6 more gallons

althea's apfelwein

6 gallons 100% apple juice
2 lbs brown sugar
1 packet lalvin ec-1118

may or may not back sweeten w/ honey and apple concentrate when done.
if so i have some potassium sorbate to whack the yeast 1st.

i'll post in a month or so to let y'all know what's shakin'.

edit: so, that's 1053...because i added some concentrate and water to round it out to a nice 6.3 gallons

Thats the exact same recipe I did with my first batch. It came out extremely dry and sour, sorta like chewing on granny smith apple peels. I killed it with sorbate and added 2 lbs corn sugar and two cans concentrate to get it into drinkable condition.

I'm pretty sure its the EC-1118 yeast that does that. I did another batch with Cotes de blanc, still fermenting so no idea what thats like

 

[Willsellout]

Allright so I bottled today after almost two months in the primary. Ending gravity was 1.000. It's a pain in the ass to bottle because it's so fizzy. I had to put away the bottling wand and bottle from the spigot. It will get another month to condition and carbonate before I will pop one open.
