    Small Batch Cider: Fermentation Advice

    My first attempt at a cider has been fermenting (in a brewfridge set to 20 degrees) for 9 days now. It started at 1044, and is down to pretty much spot on 1000. It's nothing but 7 litres of apple juice from the local safeway....any thoughts as to how long it might take to be finished? I think...

    Wb-06 Yeast Made A Huge Difference

    Is "headspace" In The Fv A Problem When Brewing Cider?

    I'm keen to try a cider for the missus so it looks like i'm sharing my new found passion for home brew.

    Why Are We Told To Do 23 Litres?

    I've tried searching for this specific topic, but haven't had much luck. It struck me during all the research i've been doing into homebrew lately that making smaller batch sizes might be useful at the moment....as i'm just starting out i'm bound to make mistakes, and i'm also looking forward...

    Light Dry Malt, Brew Enhancer, Or Both?

    So my first ever home brew is bubbling away, day 4 of the most basic of recipes...a Thomas Coopers Wheat Ale kit with 1kg of Dextrose and the yeast from under the lid (the recipe provided by Aussie Brew Makers in the "Deluxe II" kit I bought). Now, I realise there's a myriad of ways to do this...
