How many gallons of EdWort's Apfelwein have been made?

[beerman6]

1gallon to see if we like it. 2219, every gallon helps

 

[FSR402]

Just made up 5 more gallons..

Total is 2219 + 5 = 2224 :rockin:

 

[98EXL]

we will definitely hit 3000 by end of year

 

[Whelk]

Just put up 3 gallons.

2,227 gallons!

Someone should just go ahead and fill their swimming pool with apple juice, chuck in a few bricks of dry yeast, and see what happens.

 

[jo7hs2]

Just put on a little over one gallon today. Counting it as one.

Thread total: 2,228

 

[mrk305]

1 more for me... 2,229

 

[98EXL]

why only one gallon guys? You'll be so sorry you didn't make more

 

[tarheels]

5 gal for me. 2234 gal

 

[SoCalBrewing]

Another 9 gallons in the fermenter today.

2234+9=2243

 

[Adolphus79]

Bottled my first batch last week, and I already know this will be a regular recipe around here...

2243 + 5 = 2248

 

[smoke76]

2248+5 more!!!!!! so thats 2253

 

[uniconfis]

2253 + 5 started tonight = 2258. Love that Apfelwein!

 

[Jeepsn beer]

2258+3 = 2261. Mmmmm Apfelwine.

 

[drobbins]

2261 + my 5 = 2266

Dave

[Crazytwoknobs]

[Dr_Deathweed]

2281+5 more last night = 2286

 

[mrk305]

2286 + 5 = 2291

I now have a dedicated carboy for Apfelwine

 

[jeff967]

bottled up my 1st batch, put a new batch on the yeast cake.2296

 

[BlindLemonLars]

Just got my third batch going. 2296 + 5 = 2301

Made this batch with Red Star Premier Cuvée yeast, since that's what I had on hand. It's supposed to be good for dry champagne, so I think it might be a good match for Apfelwein. We'll see.

98EXL,

I generally only brew in somewhat over one or somewhat over two gallon batches. I use 1 gallon jugs as secondaries, that way I can just stick a "cork" in them when they are done, saves space and cost. I also feel cider belongs in a jug. After all, they are called cider jugs. I'm really glad, too, I can't imagine filling my apartment with the smell of 5 gallons of Montrachet fermented fluids!

**From question on page 53**

 

[Kubed]

2301 + 5 = 2306

First time trying it, going with WLP300 yeast

 

[N3WWN]

2306 + 1 = 2307 (started a gallon with cherry cider over the weekend)

 

[lackofstyl]

have my first batch in cellar for a month now, cant wait to keg it

2307 + 5 = 2312

 

[krispy d]

Five more here, spiced it up a bit for thanksgiving! I'm sure it's gonna be a hit. that makes 2317!

 

[kinison_fan]

+5 kegged last night, (sample tasted very good), 2322 gallons.
+5 back on the yeast cake

2327

 

[benner81]

2327 + 5 = 2332

just started a batch with turbinado sugar and pasteur champagne yeast

 

[Sir Humpsalot]

My new recipe: Apfelwein with a shot of dark rum. It kills the sourness, but in a different way than sweetening does. Very tasty!

 

[Schlenkerla]

2332 + 5 = 2337 :rockin:

 

[ZacMac]

2337 + 5 = 2342

 

[EdWort]

2327 + 5 = 2332

just started a batch with turbinado sugar and pasteur champagne yeast

Sounds interesting. How much sugar and how many gallons?

 

[Whiskey]

2332+1 (My first)= 2333

Shockingly easy.

 

[EdWort]

2333+5 = 2338

 

[Kubed]

2338 + 5 = 2343

 

[ScubaSteve]

2343+5=2348

I did mine "holiday style", using 2 lbs dark brown sugar, 1 tbsp cinnamon, and 2 crushed cloves. Smelled great....but damn! My kitchen floor is sticky!

 

[Liquidsandwich]

2348+ 5= 2353 (cider instead of juice)

 

[brewinfool]

2353 + 10 more gallons = 2363

made mine w/ cinnamon, cloves and allspice for halloween

keep on pourin'

 

[e lo]

2363 + 5 = 2368.

Had to use different yeast, as my LHBS was out of Montrachet. I tried Red Star's Pasteur Champagne. We'll see how it goes. This being my first try at Apfelwein, SWMBO was non-plussed with how much apple juice wound up in the cart at the grocery store yesterday...

 

[AnOldUR]

2368 + 5 = 2373

First time. Threw it together after diner last night. That was pretty easy. Now comes the hard part, waiting!

Read here that light won't hurt it, so trying to convince my SWMBO that it makes a nice conversation piece in the dining room. What do you think?



Thanks Ed!

 

[Hill Country Brewer]

2373 + 5 = 2378

I'm a first timer on the Apfelwein...took about 40 minutes total yesterday from start to clean up. I used the original recipe for the first time and am looking forward to it in 4 weeks.
