whomper Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 I always remember hearing about a way to make fresh apple cider into a potent alcoholic beverage..Its not by adding alcohol its something about storing it a specific way or something like that..Does anyone know what I am talking about ? If so can you explain how to do it ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polksalet Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 put yeast in the bottle, put some sort of valve mechanism on top, place in a warm dry area. Not that I have ever done this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twiley Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 5 gallons of fresh pressed sweet apple juice5 cups of sugar 1 package of Wyeast liquid lager brewers yeast Transfer the juice and sugar using a sanitized funnel or food grade plastic hose into a sanitized glass or stainless-steel container at room temperature. Allow the sugar to dissolve and then pitch the lager yeast and affix a fermentation lock atop the carboy. It will soon begin to bubble away releasing carbon dioxide as the yeast converts the sugars into alcohol. Allow the cider to ferment and mellow for at least two months before transferring it with your sanitized food grade hose into bottles, a keg, or any vessel you prefer. Then enjoy. Any homebrew supply shop can get you started with the proper advice and equipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
