well ive cracked 2 of the 750 ml bottles and as red baron said it could be due to under carbontaion but do you have n e sort of method i could use for bottling my next brew because i want it a bit bubblier but wasnt sure what to put in do you have an equation?
yeah it finished out at 1.000 but after bottling they didn't seem to carbonate very well i don't know if thats due to the yeast starting to die off or not enough because its only 9 grams of the yeast for the 25 litres so i may suggest putting a nutrent in it halfway through the week unless you...

I bought it at my local health food store and they make cider kits but also sell a yeast by itself and no it doesn't have enough information at all about the yeast really which is kind of a pain but I will see how this batch goes and who knows I might even recommend it
Hey guys, Ive just pitched my first batch of cider using the mad millie cider yeast and just wondering if anyone has had any experience using this yeast.
I wasn't sure whether to use sugar with it or not so i just added a few different juices including a plain apple, an apple and mango and an...
Hey guys,
