You are added! I have been making quite a bit of Hard Apple Cider the last few months. I currently have 1 6 gallon carboy full and two one gallon jugs aging. I will let them sit and for the next six months.
Last weekend I went to a Dinner at my Brother’s. I donated 1 of my gallon jugs of hard cider to the cause.
When I bottled the 5 gal batch I added 1 gal of unsweetened apple juice instead of corn sugar for carbonation. It came out fantastic! Has a light carbonation similar to a champagne.
It was a hit! Between the 7 of us we went through over half a gal. after dinner.
