I'm just preparing for my first attempt at a turbo cider & have decided to prime with apple juice rather than sugar. The question is how much to use?
I'm starting with 11 litres of AJ (9.3g / 100ml sugars). Will probably use that same AJ for priming, so total volume is 11 litres plus priming volume.
One calculator is suggesting 5.5g/500ml which is more than double the quantity I'd use for beer so sounds excessive to me.One calculator is suggesting 5.5g/500ml which is more than double the quantity I'd use for beer so sounds excessive to me. That would suggest in excess of a litre needs adding whereas as I'm thinking more like half to two thirds of a litre???
I'm confused.
TIA.
