    Conditioning and Back Sweetening Cider - Suggestions?

    22 YKM fresh hop

    I don’t ever change the temp on the software because I don’t have temp control (yet). I ferment in keg under ~5psi in a room that is 67-70 degrees F. Diazyme is the magic.

I brewed extract lots back in the 90s when one of my classmates was a research person working at Haas - a great connection...
