Hi all,
I am about to do my second batch of cider (23 litres), my first was from a Mangrove Jacks pouch, but this one will be using Coles Apple Juice. I have mangrove jacks m02cider yeast and will be fermenting at 20 degrees. My questions are
1- to get around 8-9% abv how much extra dextrose should I add to the fermentation?
2- when I want to semi-sweeten it at the end, how much lactose should I add, and will the taste before bottling be roughly the taste after sitting in the bottles for a few weeks to get an idea of taste?
thanks
