Thanks guys, I am getting ready to make a couple hopped ciders for the first time. I was curious on how long to keep the hops in the cider. Thanks for the info. Looking forward to making it.

The cider industry needs to take a hard look at why we have stalled and are now going backwards. Yes, the alcohol beverage category is suffering now, but since cider makes such a tiny % of market share, there is plenty of room to increase that share of a slightly shrinking pie, but we are not. Like every lost election, the ‘reason’ proffered usually maps pretty close to one’s long held grievances and strongly held priors. A culture of cider has not been developed and with few exceptions has failed to grow out of the ‘beer alternative’ space. There is so much abundance and diversity in cider that it should be celebrated for its own sake, bringing nature and tradition to the table in a sustainable and accessible way. Cider can be a low alcohol alternative to grape wine for the table. It has a low carbon footprint with local orchards (carbon sinks) and minimum transport costs. Tap friendly for minimal waste. Literally hundreds of blends and varieties from the various pome fruit alone to encourage exploration and creativity. Etc. Opportunities are slipping through our fingers as the industry is desperately clinging to that flavored cider tap at the local micro brewery that is itself struggling to stay open where the buyer has been strong armed into exchanging the local craft self distributed cider for the regional corporate behemoth dominating the distributor. Let’s act now and make changes.

It should stop itself in this context because the yeast cannot tolerate the high alcohol level.

Hello all . I have 16 litres of apple juice from concentrate . With 4 bottles of ŁOWICZ SYRUP WITH STRAWBERRY FLAVOURED 400ML. This has 75 g of sugar in it no preservatives . The og of this concoction is 1.080 . I know it will be a high Abv . And it will be dry. If I let it ferment out the stop the yeast with a yeast stopper . Can I then sweeten with the ŁOWICZ SYRUP WITH STRAWBERRY FLAVOURED 400ML ?

Awesome video. Do you feel that traditional apple pressing produces a better cider? Regarding your racking to secondary, any concerns about the head space? With mead that would not go over well.
@Number12Cider
@Number12Cider 2 ай бұрын
Cider apples make for better cider but pressing yourself we do not believe changes the outcome. For traditional cider-makers, they like to have control of the pressing to make sure it is done right but otherwise, good juice is good juice.

I stumbled across your videos and love them! I'm getting into brewing hard cider ( been doing Mead). Do you ferment dry or stop the fermentation to avoid backsweetening? Do you do anything to kill the wild yeast before adding your specific yeast of choice? Thanks in advance and can't wait to get to Minneapolis to sample!!
@Number12Cider
@Number12Cider 2 ай бұрын
Thanks. Yes, look at our other videos but we generally sulfite before the ferment to kill off the wild yeast - that is when we are pitching yeast. We generally have not stopped the fermentation intentionally but it is common in France. That requires a method that deprives the yeast of nutrient to finish the job. Otherwise it can be done with sulfites and the like.

Hi guys. Do you have a take on pasteurization before primary if the juice is orchard fresh? Is it necessary? Is it preferable flavorwise in regards to allowing the yeast to shine through? What are possible flavor developments, either good or bad to fermenting raw in primary? Thanks!
@Number12Cider
@Number12Cider 2 ай бұрын
We would definately not "prefer" pasteurized juice to ferment. Pasteurization can be said to lend a slightly "cooked" flavor to the product although I think that is over-stated for a typical flash or 155 degree heat. Raw juice is going to be more susceptible to the bacteria that exists in your location but the sulfite dosage generally takes care of that. Traditional cider makers like the raw juice and the potential complexities that come out of that ferment but in our opinion, pasteurization does not materially impact the outcome.

How much yeast should you use for 5L. I've put in about 5g in my 1st batch, should i adjust that!
@Number12Cider
@Number12Cider 2 ай бұрын
Obviously we are talking about dry yeast here. That sounds about like a typical 5g dosage so it should work fine. I would not worry too much about putting too much in as you can rack it off the lees after the ferment is complete.

Thanks for your videos! I only have about 10 lbs each of apples and pears and was contemplating combining the two to make an apple/pear cider. However from everything I have read, perry sounds like it can be a bit more temperamental than apple cider. I am wondering if a better option is just to top off with store bought apple juice since I probably wont have enough apples and add in pear juice like you have in this video. Do you have experience making perry?
@Number12Cider
@Number12Cider 2 ай бұрын
We have yes. Pear cider tends to be lower acid so more susceptible to going bad. Adding apple or acid helps prevent that but takes away from the pear essence. Store bought apple juice can be used or store bought pear juice. Good pears for cider are hard to find (at least for us :)).
@user-ri8fn6sz7z
@user-ri8fn6sz7z 5 ай бұрын
You could ferment the apple juice right in the containers you bought them in. Once fermentation starts just loosen the lid slightly. Put a coffee filter on it and tighten but not fully. Then use the beer maker to finish them and from there bottle them. No need for that bucket.
