I have done my fair share of research on making ciders from apples (21g of sugar) but I have never seen one made from mango's (32g of sugar). I have about 10 gallons juiced in different ways (juice w/pulp, pureed & pure juice) and would like to see if this is even possible. I have the Camden tablets & White Labs cider yeast but I feel like this is still not possible.
I have a gallon of the juice with pulp in its 3rd clarification stage (took a while to separate) and now I am ready to bottle. It went from 3 gallons down to about one... and it smells more like a mead.
Q1: Should I cut the mango with water and some cane sugar?
Q2: Is 1 tube of yeast too much for 3 gal of mango?
Q3: Is this retarded and should I just mix the mango with rum and be done with it?
I will be trying the first batch in 2 weeks... Likely will let it age to mello.
