Teasing title might get me a few results lol
Anyway after much putting off of doing it I have gotten round to having all the ingredients at hand to put a few more batches of cider down.
While I was juice shopping I noticed something on the shelf I hadn't seen before; Bickfords overpriced pure, preservative free juices. I grabbed 2 bottles of pomegranate juice as it seemed the most appealing, but there was cloudy pear, berries and acai, and prune available. I left the prune alone as I have no issues with bowel movements and the acai one was about 60 percent grape juice so left that too as I'm making cider not wine at the moment. Cloudy Pear I'll try next time, but a 6 bucks a litre its not really something I'm prepared to do consistently unless the results are remarkable.
So anyway I have 2 litres of pure unadulterated pom juice. My questions are, will two litres in a 23L batch make any noticeable differences in appearance and flavour? Or should I get another litre or two. It will be going in the fermenter pre yeast addition so it will get the same treatment the apple juice does. What do you reckon?
Apart from that just going do bung a good ol apple cider down.
Cheers
