Home made cider

[Half cocked]

Last year at the meet it was a mystery how I managed to get in my hammock after consuming your cider.

And how you managed to stay in?

You are only saying that Mike because it's your paint stripper you gave him.
Have you not used a hydrometer to test its potency?

No, I usually just wrack it off and add cane sugar in tiny quantities until it’s strong enough to kill the yeast. It then stops bubbling and I then blend it for taste. I've also made pure cider which has absolutely nothing except apples but this can be a little unpredictable as it uses only the natural yeast on the apple skin and only the fructose of the actual apples. (That can be dry to the point of being a little sharp)
