Hi, gave cider making a whirl as have a small apple tree and didn't want the fruit to go to waste, total juice gave me about 2.5 litres so we are not talking much!!
Measured the SG before fermenting at 1.044 but then added some sugar (and didn't measure the SG afterwards). Have just decanted into a plastic bottle and re-measured at 1.00 (or very fractionally above) so know it's finished fermenting.
Any idea if I can calculate how alcoholic this is going to be?
Also, I've added sugar to the bottle to make is sparkling (1tsp per 500ml) but how long before I can drink and find out if I've just wasted my time lol
ANY advice appreciated
