today jenna and i made a cider! had a little taste of the un-fermented juice concoction just now while testing the gravity and it was really yum! with any luck in a few weeks it'll still be as nice and with a bit of a kick behind it. sorry about the terrible photo; i couldn't take a better one while we were pouring the juice in and everything because we needed all hands!
so far it's looking like it'll get to about 5% abv which i'm happy about. the ingredients are on the cider page - check it out! has a beautiful apple, pear taste with a hint of lemon honey tea in there to liven up the flavour profile. i decided this time to skip using any sweetener in there. this will be the test batch and i'll make changes to it from there once i can figure out how this one tastes.
this week i'll also be making another pale ale with a hop i've never tasted or used before, called citra. looking forward to it. might even do it tomorrow if i get the time and no-chill it.
keep checking out the page for check ups on the first sexyfuntime cider!
cheers,
fletcher
