Last year for my birthday my wife bought me a Mr Beer hard cider Kit.I made two batch's and wasn't satisfied with the taste,(not even close to Woodchuck amber ) even though it was drinkable.
So this This time around i decided to try a home brew after finding this web site.
Recipe that i found interesting was Newell's Groundhog cider.
Using the Mr Beer 2.5 gallon keg:
This is what i have done so far , not sure what to do from this point.
a little confused with instructions as to when to bottle and how to carbonate.
Ingredients for Primary Fermentation:
2.5 gallons of apple juice containing no preservatives other than ascorbic acid (vitamin C).
(I made mine from concentrate because that was what was on sale at the time.)
Light brown sugar (enough to boost OG to desired ABV) 1.06
Safale us-05 Yeast
It seems to be fermenting well in the basement at a temp of 72F its only been a week now.
Confused about when to bottle and how to carbonate this brew. What should my next steps bee.
I Plan on putting the brew into 16oz glass bottles .
