Made thus kit up tonight slightly short to 20ltrs using 1kg brewing sugar, not done this kit before but thinking could I add some sort of spice to make a spiced apple version. Which spices to add and when to add is the advice I need.
 
Check my post out, already done it and its bloody brilliant! I used some fine mesh bags from ebay to hold all the spice together and make it easier when bottling (no bits).

You can add anything to be honest, but just google traditional spices and throw it in!
 
I've just "dry-hopped" some cider with 10gr of root ginger and a dried Zimbabwe Bird Chilli per litre, and it's awesome...

Star anise, cinnamon and cloves is pretty much the norm for spiced cider.
