Notes: 1) - 2 packets Danstar London Ale Yeast.
2) - At the end of the 60 minute boil, remove the pot from the heat then remove and discard the hop bags. Allow the wort to cool to about 78ºF. (Note: Use a wort chiller to hasten this very important step. Also, be sure that anything that will come into contact with the chilled wort is properly sanitized.)
3) - The proper temperature at which to pitch (add to the wort) the yeast is in the 65ºF-75ºF range.
4) Allow the beer to ferment for one week in the primary fermenter, then rack (transfer) the beer into a secondary fermenter for an additional week to clear. At the end of the second week, record the specific gravity reading. A steady specific gravity reading of different samples over two or more days indicates that fermentation is complete.
5) When fermentation is complete add 3/4 cup of corn sugar or 11/4 cups of dry malt that has been boiled in 2 cups of water. Gently rack the finished beer into the bottling bucket with the priming sugar solution. fill the bottles to 1/2″ – 1″ from the top. Cap the bottles and allow them to condition at room temperature for two weeks.

Notes: 1. In 8 quart pot, dissolve honey in 25% of the total water volume.
2. Rehydrate yeast in 10 times it weight of water. Let stand for 15 minutes, stir gently to bring yeast into suspension.
3. Add honey mixture, remaining ingredients, and water to a total volume of 1.25 gallons in fermenter. Aerate well with drill and mixer for 5 minutes.
4. Take gravity reading.
5. Pitch yeast, cover and let sit for 24 hrs.
6. Degas and aerate twice per day for the first 5 days of fermentation.
7. At 24, 48, and 72 hours after pitching yeast, add Fermaid O to must at dosing rates based on the following calculations (https://www.meadmaderight.com/tosna.html)
8. On day 5 add final nutrient dose.
9. Primary fermentation 4-6 weeks. Mead should start to clear.
10. Rack to secondary at least 2-3 months or until clear. Add 50ppm sulfites.
11. Bottle, adding sufites and potassium sorbate to stabilize. |

Notes: 480 oz of apple juice
Added .9 lb of Turbinado.
Made a 2 step starter of WLP001
Brought apple juice to build and mixed in honey, brown sugar, and turbinado.
Original Instructions
This brew is an iteration of a few ciders using different grain bills (juice to honey ratios) with various yeasts.
Notes:
5lbs = 5 Gal. Apple Juice (if this is your first cider, use organic juice without potassium sorbate; it will kill the yeast and not ferment). Don't think I used maltodextrin here.
The rest of the grain bill is accurate. If a little less kick is needed, try one of the alternates below. I'm using WLP001 this time because of its tolerance for high alcohol, higher fermenting temp and because it finishes sweater (personally I prefer the dryness of the EC-1118 but then it's closer to Cyser territory).
I'm thinking ABV should be close to 10%. Also, because OG will be relatively high I'm using a starter. One could also double pitch with decent results. I've pitched one yeast pack before and still not had any problems.
Basic steps: Boil 2 gal. apple juice and add honey stirring constantly. (Honey is heavy and will sink to the bottom. It burns easily like candi syrup.) Boil juice, honey and sugar together for at least 20 minutes. Combine wort with remaining juice once temps drop to pitching levels.
