Ok, here's what happened. This is my first attempt. I started 5 1/2 gal of natural cider, ( which I pressed myself), sometime in early november. I added ...
You may have simply hit the limit of natural yeast tolerance to alcohol. If you want a high alcohol content, then you'll need a different yeast such as ...
I just checked it for the first time in a couple days and there does seem to be a small ring of bubbles around the top. Maybe its waking back up. There also ...
AH! my teeth hurt just hearing you added 5 cups of sugar. Wild yeast doesn't have as much tolerance of a high alcohol state like champagne yeast does. Many...
Oh well, maybe I can sell it as a home remedy. I prepared myself early on for this experiment to fail. Next year I'll be better prepared. I guess I'll just...
Looks like the conversion from Yahoo Clubs to Yahoo Groups has begun. It looks like clubs beginning with the letter A and possibly B are being converted. Cider...
I hope that those of you who actively check in on this club got my e-mail about the conversion from Clubs to Groups. I got some returned mail from a number of...
actually one of the added features is a files section. I have a club where we put information for general use. Perhaps we could start seeing the "Big Book of...
You know I used to be able to make great (adult)Cider as a kid by using a gallon of store bought apple cider. If you can remember something like this please ...
Most any wine yeast should do the trick. Unless of course you are adding a lot of extra sugar to get a high alcohol content. White wine yeasts would be more...
For a straight cider with no added sugar a variety of beer or wine yeasts will work. If additional sugars are added, a beer yeast may not be enough although I...
I usually get anywhere from 12-14% from Champagne yeast although you really gotta lay on the sugar if your looking for sweetness. it tends to be really dry. my...
I have saved the images from the photo album. In some of the clubs that have been converted to groups the albums have not been converted yet. I don't know if...
Well, we made the transition to groups. A quick trip to the photo section shows that that transition went well. I haven't explored groups yet, so I am not up...
I put up a couple gallon batches last year, and took out one of the bottles over the weekend. Basic recipe: a gallon of unfiltered apple juice, a can of apple...
has anyone got or know a recipe that makes a cider that tastes just like or nearly like strongbow draught, or any of the strongbow flavours i suppose. I love...
... Asking that question is like asking what you would need to make almost anything. It all depends on your personal goals, likes, dislikes, etc. You can...
Some of you may remember a rasberry cider that I started in November that was a real slow ferment on account of sorbates in the juice. Well, I learned another...
gimpoftheweek, Commercial ciders can be difficult to copy. The industrial folks have a lot of tricks available that can be expensive for us amatures to...
blaz3000, This is a difficult question to answer. At the most basic level, just purchase a gallon jug of cider (without preservatives), add yeast to it and...
bambrew, Sorry your batch turned out this way. Hopefully you are encouraged to try this again with your new insight. I think your raspberry- cider is a great...
The temperature in my basement is slowly rising from the steady 64 it maintained all winter to about 70 now and higher soon. I feel that I should probably...
naturalcider2002, If your goal is a semi-sweet to sweet carbonated cider like many of the US made commercial Ciders, force carbonation is probably the safest...
I started my 6th batch of cider today. Avoiding the fancy stuff in hopes of getting a drinkable brew this time. 5 gal White House apple juice 5 can Seneca...

I'd didn't know there was such a thing as antique cider apples. In general any apple can be used to make cider and people in England tend to use different...
I racked my cider this weekend. When I moved the carboy I stirred up quite a bit of this gelatinous floating stuff, some of which was sucked into the siphon...
