So I'm planning on doing around 5 small batches of cider to experiment. I've been reading about caramel apple cider and decided to give it a shot. From what I've read so far, some people say steep some grains and add it to the cider. I'm trying to get a good caramel flavor to it but I can't figure out what grains to use.
I'm looking at the caramel (Briess) on midwest, but I can't figure out what the numbers behind that are. It goes 10L, 40L, 60L etc. I was also planning on trying to add some LME or DME to a few of the batches. I'm not seeing any DME or LME that mentions caramel flavor, but maybe I'm just not looking in the right place. If anyone has any recommendations for what kind of malt to add that would be great.
