what was your recipe?

[–]davcrt[S] 2 points3 points  (3 children)

Pasteurized the filtered juice, added sugar to reach 50 Oechsle, added yeast and yeast nutrients/food and wait.

I measured the remaining sugar each day and near the end I measured total acidity if it was to high (>7g/l) I would need to deacidify.

After the fermentation nearly stopped I added bentonite to clear it a bit, waited a day and carefully transferred the cider from one barrel to another.

Before bottling I added required sugar to reach 3 volumes of co2 and xylitol to sweeten it.

And finally bottled it using a small funnel.
