Cider Making Instructions

1

Preparation of Apple Juice

Start by gathering fresh apple juice. If you have whole apples, press them to extract the juice.

2

Mixing Ingredients

In a large fermentation vessel, combine the fresh apple juice, water, sugar, acid blend, and pectic enzyme. Stir well to dissolve the sugar.

3

Adding Yeast

Sprinkle the champagne yeast over the mixture and stir gently. Allow it to sit for about 10 minutes to let the yeast hydrate.

4

Fermentation Process

Cover the fermentation vessel with an airlock. Let it ferment in a cool, dark place for 1-2 weeks, or until bubbling stops.

5

Dry Hopping

Once fermentation is complete, add the dry hops to the cider. Let it sit for an additional 3-5 days to infuse the hop flavor.

6

Bottling

After the dry hopping period, siphon the cider into clean bottles, leaving some space at the top. Seal the bottles.

7

Carbonation

Let the bottles sit at room temperature for another week to carbonate. After that, refrigerate before serving.
