turbo cider

[old dog new tricks]

In a word no, when i make it i use 100% apple juice from concentrate, the 2 preservatives will stop the yeasties doing their job

Cheers I thought so I used a kit tastes not bad but concerned it was a bit watery tasting I will try just juice see how that goes might be my yeast I have EC 1118 but some say it strips out taste so might look at other yeasts

Going to try oaking my next Turbo Cider. Have got some vanilla flavoured oak chips on the way. Could be nice, could be horrible



It'll still get drunk though (can always add black current cordial)

All the supermarkets do similar. Cheap, works, taintless.

Maltodextrin

Maltodextrin

exact same product was £1.20 in my local ASDA hence why I went with the cheaper Stevia at £1.05

Stevia isn't the same, and may leave an after taste. I have a bag unused, because of this.

Bag free to good home. Pm me.

Looping back to the yeast parts (only just spotted this thread) I always use Fermipan bread yeast. It doesn't completely dry it out and it leaves a distinct apple flavour.

As its turbo cider I've never measured the yeast quantity, probably just less than a level teaspoon in 15 litres

I just picked up some CML cider yeast as local to me and a few have said its a good base.

Maltodextrin. All the supermarkets do similar. Cheap, works, taintless.

Nearly all of them have a big yellow lid too.
