Absolutely brilliant videos. Keep em coming. I'm a newbie to homebrewing so I like to see the way these craftsmen/women are working.

I'm new to the dark ancient art of Cider making. Brilliant insight into a modern family business. Buck it in ye!

Thanks , have you beer making cider from apples or from an extract kit?

[@JustinIgger-x1r]

@@Geterbrewed Hi, I'm in the middle of making 8 litres from concentrated apple juice as a trial run that's going well. It started with an OG of 1.046 and the bubbler has started to slow today at day 7. I'm starting with a still cider then if alls well I'm going for 25 Litres of fizzy. I've messed with kits in the past with varying results but with apple juice, sugar and yeast(and a big mug of strong tea for tannin) you know what's in it.

we nearly doubled production on my farm this year... to 125 gallons! got a long way to go to get to a commercial stage!

This was a very cool walkthrough. We knew IBCs were used to ferment on a smaller scale; but, had no idea such a big producer would use so many IBCs to ferment their beverage! I wonder if they have had an issues over the over the years with certain apple juices or flavorings inside the plastic totes? We are picking up 6 totes this weekend........now we just have to figure out how to clean them!

Nice videos! What pasteurization technique do you use?

[@Geterbrewed]

This particular company does submersion method, bottles in a cage that is submerged into a hot water bath. Do you produce Cider?

@@Geterbrewedhi! I’m also a beginning professional tiny cider maker. 5000L /year. Now I only make dry cider. Could I force carbonate a sweet cider, bottle it and then submerge pasteurise it? That’s a lot of pressure on the bottles at 60degrees C?! How do big producers like this one it:)? Greetings from belgium!🎉

No airlock on the IBC cubes? I'm surprised

2200 ton of apples in a season. Wow.
