Hey guys! After a successful first ever brew, pleased to report my kit cider worked! However, as nice as it is, it's not the cider I'm after. Has anyone got recipes or kit suggestions that will an able me to brew a still, old rosey/scrumpy style cider. Don't really have access to any apples but...

Haha I'll be leaving it alone. Theirs no worry there, don't want to mess up my first attempt and want the best result available. Cheers for all your help, if you can recommend any kits for a later date that would be appreciated

You would recommend now I've transferred keep it somewhere specifically warm? It's been in my kitchen at a cool 10 degrees through fermentation (as suggested on the kit, cooler longer will taste better). Now it's in pressure barrel shall I put it in my much cosier living room?

I followed it to the letter, so hoping it should come out fine. It says on the kit that it should be ready after four days though for best results leave up to 2 weeks. So I was planning on leaving it the duration. Can you recommend any other good kits for a future attempt?

Thank you :) yea I put the sugar in when transferring to the new barrel. My kit suggested 56g, don't know if I done something wrong though as it seemed to reduce a lot, but that might just be the kit.

Hey guys complete newbie here an on my first ever kit. I've got a question regarding transferring to the pressure barrel. Once all the cider has been transferred, there is still air in the top, the cider didn't fill it completely. Ok to leave that air there or do I need to add anything to it...
