Notes: The cider was provided by a local farm that sells unpasteurized unfiltered Russet based cider to homebrewers. This batch was 6 gallons.

1. Add 6 gallons of cider to sanitized bucket.
2. Add brown sugar to same bucket.
3. Add 1 crushed campden tablet and wait 12 hours.
4. Add 1/2 tsp per gallon of pectic enzyme and wait 12 hours.
5. Add yeast nutrient.
6. Pitch yeast (2L DME starter)

Primary until activity subsides (seven to ten days)
Secondary until clear (1 month min, to 2 months)

Gravity should be around 1.001 when complete.

Once secondary is complete, add potassium sorbate (if kegging)
to prevent re-fermentation, let it sit overnight.

Bottling is a bit trickier. Read Zymurgy's article on backsweetening cider: https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/how-to-brew/how-to-backsweeten-mead-and-cider/

Add wine conditioner to taste or concentrated cider (freeze and let sit upside-down in cup then add concentrate).

Gold winner of first round NHC competition 2014, silver in 2015, dry-hopped version won gold in 2016 and gold winner in New York State Fair Homebrew Competition 2014.

Notes: First attempt at my own original recipe, my all time favorite: Bavarian Weissbier.

Took 3rd in German Wheat & Rye beers at the Southern New England Regional Homebrew Competition 2013.

For 2nd batch trying a single infusion mash and different yeast, 3068 instead of 3056.

Batch 2 came out watery and lacking body, very disaapointing. Trying a double decoction next time, also added 2 lbs Carapils.

Got it right now, best version yet, no more changes to the recipe.

Had to substitute Belgian Carapils for German Carapils this latest batch for color reasons.
Trying a single decoction this time and raising fermentation temp from 65 to 68
Also cut back the bittering 1.5 IBUs

Notes: I don't have an amount of Sparge Water as my sparge routine is to add 180 degree water, then sparge until I reach preboil volume of 6.5 gallons in the boil kettle.

Fermentation Schedule: 2 weeks in a single vessel fermenter. Started Fermentation at 64 (f) and ramped up to 68 degrees (f) over the course of the two week fermentation. I would recommend lagering (in the keg) at serving temperature for 2 weeks as the flavor continues to improve over time. this will allow the beer to properly carbonate. Good luck leaving the tap handle alone for the two weeks though.

Added Yeast Nutrient and 1 Whirlfoc tablet with 10 minutes left in the boil.
