I forgot = I did add one full cup of sugar to the apple juice. The original gravity of the juice was at 1.042 and the sugar brought it up to 1.060
Howdy RD. How is Texas treating you? I have everything for home brewing, but have not done it in a few years. Started with the malt syrup and the inevitable boil overs when breaking the fermentables on the kitchen stove. Then I went to doing large batches at a time at a local brew store that had large vats and used hand ground malted barley. Used to do 15 or so cases at a time of large bottles. I should give wine a try.
