I don't have most of my equipment at hand, but I want to do some cider again. Very easy, from applejuice.
It's actually how I started.
So, it's going to be apple juice (preserved with vitamin C, so no fermenting problems), some sugar and yeast.
I have used baker's yeast before, but want to try some "proper" cider yeast now.
And I want to add some hop.
So thinking of bpiling water, adfing the sugar to it and some hop, letting it cool and add to the apple juice.
Would that work?
I can measure the temperature more or less with an instant read thermometer. But my hydrometers, pH meters and everything else is in a box.
Got a bucket and waterlock.
I want to put the lot in a coolbox with a wet towel on top.
Current low temp 14 oC, high 39 oC.
Will it work or should I be patient, drink the apple juice and wait till full solar power systrm is installed and I have found my box with brewing stuff?
As an aside, my fly fishing rod is in the brew box, so it's a priority box
