    What a great vid! Just finished racking the 25 gallons of cider I pressed this year into secondary. Been totally obsessed this fall with all things cider. Most people have a neighbour who has an apple tree that they leave neglected. Knock on a door, meet someone new and make cider for free!

    GREAT VIDEO! My LHBS buys a huge amout of cider every year, I will have to try making cider from fresh juice instead of the bottled clear stuff you get at the supermarket

      Thanks for the support. Shout-out to KLOB! What is your yeast/fermentation plans?

      Picked up a early and late season press 6 gallons each. Added 1.5# corn sugar, camden, pectic enzyme, and yeast nutrient. Pitched WLP775 in both after 24 hours. Rack to secondary. I will bottle and store for a year (if I can wait). Love your work on Splendid Table. KLOB (Kalamazoo Libation Organization of Brewers) great club! Peace

      Nice! What FG did you get to? Hint: don't wait a year as a hard rule; if it's ready to drink, it's ready to drink. Thanks for The Splendid Table shout-out!

      @@ChopAndBrew what do they do with the spent apples? Hope they find a farmer with animals or some one who can use them.

      That's exactly how it went down. It was like three giant tarps full of pomace.

    I’m picking up anger issues on wholesome apples? They truly need group therapy.

    Thanks for this peak into the wide world of cider making. Look forward to a sit down with Kevin for that brain picking episode you were talking about. Would Kevin be willing to have you post some of his recipes? Hope so and thanks ou yet again.

      I'm sure he will share. To start, you can search Chop & Brew site for -- or Google -- Mino Choi Ginger Hard Cider.

    I wanted to like this video, but it was at 69, and the kid in me couldn't ruin that number.

    @cidermeister9440 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Nicely done. Like to back sweeten myself. Nice trick when you also want some carbonation! A batch I made last year with Kveik yeast was excellent; finished at 1.008, well worth a try. Cheers.

    • @ChopAndBrew
      @ChopAndBrew  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I have some kviek from a fan in Norway. Maybe I'll try that this fall. Did you ferment warm/hot?

    • @cidermeister9440
      @cidermeister9440 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Cold. Just in a demijon in the(unheated) brew shed. Bottled Feb-18 and was pretty good come Jul-18. I'll try my best to save a bottle or two until next year. Cheers.

    • @ChopAndBrew
      @ChopAndBrew  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the good word. I'll have to try this.

    Very cool, I have been diving into apple cider this year myself. I wish I could get my hands on some fresh pressed juice.

    Does champagne yeast work for making a decent dry cider

    • @ChopAndBrew
      @ChopAndBrew  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have never tried it, but considering my success with white wine yeast I'd assume it could work.

    • @ChopAndBrew
      @ChopAndBrew  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is some info here and also on HomebrewTalk forum: beerandbrewing.com/the-craft-of-cider-making

    i'm not in to taste test i think every one taste is different so it's likely to change from time to time evan mine changes but the video was ok to watch

    • @ChopAndBrew
      @ChopAndBrew  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's the best we can hope. Thanks for watching the show.

    Sounds fun, how much of a $ investment for members though?

    • @ChopAndBrew
      @ChopAndBrew  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think we paid like $6-7/gallon.
