First cider is good. I think it's at nearly 9%, slightly dry but tasty. I added the pectic enzyme at the wrong time so it didn't clear but gently caress it, it tastes the same.

Maybe if you wanna clear it a bit more or let the flavors mellow if it has a strong sulfur taste or something, but it's about as quick as beer. I started it last month, and within 10 days fermentation was significantly slowed and basically complete at .998ish gravity. By three weeks it was stabilized, back sweetened and in a keg getting force carbonated. If I had more patience I would've let it sit in secondary longer and carb it more, but for a first cider I'm satisfied.

It was also way easier than beer because it didn't take three hours just to boil some wort. You can pitch yeast right away, or if you want it boozier get a quart of cider to 180*, dissolve sugar then add it to your batch.

I think next year I'll ask the neighbors with the neglected apple tree if I can take their apples. Its only about $40 per five gallon batch in store bought cider, but renting a press will only cost $10.

I'm doing drill makeups this week. So I could visit family, make more money than my civie job, and avoid holiday traffic.

Not sure if I'm getting out early though. One of the advantages of my civilian job is that most of the people in the office would have hosed off by now regardless of if they have PTO to spend.

In the spirit of Ciderchat, I feel compelled to share with you a story from my college days. It concerns when my friend and roommate tried to make cider with apples harvested in our backyard, with hilariously bad results.

A bit of background: My roommate, let’s call him Heath, has terminal ADHD, exacerbated by being a graduate of Berkeley High and all of the attendant dropping LSD and smoking weed in class. He was a super smart dude, but he would typically save all of his work for the quarter for like the last week of it, and then take a bunch of his ADHD meds and stay up for a week straight doing it all. By the end of it, he would be dressed in a kimono and having conversations with people who weren’t there. It was in this spirit that he embarked on other projects- he had like two cars up on blocks in the garage, which he would work on intensely for like three days then abandon completely for months.

Anyhow, at our house, we had an apple tree in the backyard. In late fall, the apples started to ripen and fall, so Heath gets the idea that he wants to make apple cider. He collects a huge Tupperware container’s worth of apples from the tree, and proceeds to strip down to his underwear and start stomping on the apples in the container in order to make juice.

It was this scene that I walked in on one day after class, finding my other roommates watching with a look of mild horror and amusement. After a few hours, he had stomped on enough apples to collect juice to fill three wine bottles about 2/3 full, and then decided he was bored and tired so he’d move onto the next step.

The next morning, I wake up at around 730 and walk into my kitchen. There is brown goo on top of EVERYTHING- all over the walls, the appliances, the ceiling, etc. Simply put, it looks like four or five people tucked shotguns under their chins and pulled the triggers simultaneously. I run a finger through the goop and lo and behold, it’s loving apples. I look around, and notice that the wine bottles containing the cider were all missing their corks.

I was running late for class, so I just ran over to Heath’s room, pounded on the door and yelled at him to clean up the goddamn kitchen, leaving for school wondering just what the hell had happened. When I got home several hours later, Heath was still cleaning the kitchen, but I found out what had happened- he knew that you needed yeast to affect the fermenting process, so he grabbed a bunch of baker’s yeast and poured it into the bottles, not stopping to measure the amounts or even verifying he was using the right yeast. He then corked the bottles and left them over night, and gas built up to the degree where all of the bottles basically ejected the corks and covered the kitchen with their contents. My roommate who lived next to the kitchen heard three pops during the night, but decided not to investigate.

When we moved out two years later, we were still finding loving streaks of fermented apple goop in random places.

The first time I tried it it had an undrinkably strong sulfur taste.
Second time, I started it and then got deployed so when I came back 7 months later it was mellower but still sulfury.

Might be a yeast problem. Yeast ferments cleanest when it's kept around 55 to 60, or wherever the package recommends. Apparently there's other ways to get the smell out (splash rack to another container, yeast nutrient), but time also helps.
