hi everyone ,
I'm happy to report after trying to make several batches without much luck I was able to get 4 gallons of my cider to come out the way I wanted them to.I didn't ferment them for very long just about 7 days after which I prematurely decided to bottle in large gallon containers and stick them in the fridge to clarify.Yeah all is good I think this batch will turn out nice I'm trying to age them until the summer and then drink it I hope I can wait.I want this to turn out better then the mass produced ciders I've tried those just taste like beer and too much alcohol .My question is just when is it the best time to add spices like cinnamon,nutmeg,cloves,all-spice etc?
Thanks
