Brewing a cider with clove, oak chips, apple jelly, and cinnamon since Dec 2nd. I was going to move it to secondary on the 23rd. (Not sure how long I should leave it in secondary.) But like a Christmas gift I could not help but take a peak.
So...I removed the airlock and....Rhino Fart.
Something is afoot.
I removed the lid, and smelled some more. Rhino Fart....with spices. So I sat there, examining it for a bit, letting the gas clear. Then mustering up some hutzpa I decided to try some.
It.... actually tastes alright!
But is the yeast being stressed or something? Do I actually need to aerate cider?
