Steps:
- crush and dissolve campden tablets in a cup of warm water and mix well with the FRESH apple juice in your primary fermenter.
- Let stand over-night. Mix in all other ingredients except yeast making sure everything is dissolved, then sprinkle yeast over top of juice and cover with plastic sheet and ferment 3 to 5 days.
- Rack (siphon) into secondary fermenter and attach air lock.
- Rack again in 3 weeks.
- When all fermentation is finished, rack into a clean vessel and add 2 oz of white sugar and gently stir well.
- (I usually put the sugar into a bit of water and dissolve it first by boiling it in the microwave) When sugar is well mixed, bottle and age 3 months.
- This will give you a crisp, carbonated hard cider.
- * the more sugar you add, the more alcohol you will get, but the longer it will take to ferment. I would recommend from 1/2 to 1 pound per gal/4.5 l and not more than 2 lbs.
