So, doing my fist cider and have a quick question about what to expect for FG as it's been fermenting for a while now....
These are the ingredients:
6x 20L Apple Juice
2x 850ml Pear Juice
1x 250g Honey
5x Tea Bags
1x Lemon Juice
1L Water
1x Safale S-04 yeast
OG: 1.048 and it was done on June 4th (!!)
At the moment I'm done to 1.004, thought that I had FG a few days ago with 1.006 and was getting ready to bottle but just noticed today that it had dropped once again. Should also mention that temperature is between 14.5 - 15.5 as I have the fermenter in the underground garage (no room to keep inside unit.... specially with two small kids).
So, it's been in the fermenter for just over 5 weeks now.... how much longer can I expect this to drop before I can bottle?
