looks good buddy, i have 5 gallons of cider just about to finish to pop into a keg, one tip to stop the Krausen eruption through the airlock is dip the tip of a toothpick with oil, any cooking oil will do and literally the tip only ( about 0.000001ml lol), swirl it into the ferment after the yeast, it changes the surface tension of the liquid at a microscopic layer and stops a thick krausen foam, i got a "antifoam" in a kit once that also works very well but the oil trick is cheaper and also works excellently, plus the yeast consumes it nearer the end of fermentation as a nutrient. same also works in the still, add a teaspoon of butter or oil, it stops it boiling over or "puke"
Thanks for the detailed comment, your advice re the oil is very appreciated, I'm starting a new cider tomorrow so will try this and see how it works out, Cheers!
Loved watching this. My go-to for carton-juice cider is to add squeeze of fresh orange or lemon juice (for citric acid), 2 teabags (for tannins) and handful of organic non-sulphured raisins (for yeast nutrient) to go with my vigo press commercial cider yeast. You make it look so easy and explain it really well 🎉Thank you
Ah cheers Rob! I've got 9 cider videos in various stages of production, although none are turbos at the minute as it's apple harvest season. Happy brewing!
@@ray3119 Yes you can, but I find the taste is cleaner with brewing sugar, many disagree though and say it makes no difference, it's down to experimentation.
Cheers Zoe, this one was so unusual in how it came out in the end, I've got 9 cider videos in various stages of production at the minute. Happy brewing!
I already made similar recipe but with real flowers and addition to lemons and oranges plus pears! for two times a year, it was amazing reminds me elderflower wine with citrus tartness. Yours sounds nice too! beautifully clear. Turbo Cider as you don't need real apples but juices that already made rather other than that it works same way as regular cider but quicker. Maybe you could add more real elderflowers next time.

Hi Tracy, thanks for the comment. Your natural ingredients seem like a great alternative. I appreciate your feedback very much. Cheers!
I've binge watched all your turbo cider videos.. hopefully you make more 👍

Cau you use normal sugar instead of brewing sugar ta.

Been waiting for a turbo cider again, and this sounds like a fantastic one. Got loads of apples on the trees and plenty of dried elderflower.
