Hard Cider

Classification: cider

Sometimes I rack the cider before placing in refrigerator because there is a heavy build up of dead yeast and particulate matter from the apple juice.

Ingredients:

1 gallon, unfiltered apple juice
1/3 packet, yeast

Procedure:

Remove 1 pint of juice to allow room for yeast activity. Add yeast. Let sit 4-10 days. Replace pint of juice. Place in refrigerator and enjoy.

Specifics:

Primary Ferment: 4--10 days
