Notes: Actual Fermentable (12-28-2023)
4.5 gallons Apple cider (37.5# juice - 8.34#/gal)
4 (12oz) cans apple juice concentrate (12.4# juice - 3#/can)
80 oz water
Use juice concentrate for priming sugar (if carbonating)
Did not add water except for boil (2qt), though full juice weight counted for concentrate. DO NOT ADD bentonite/boil water to primary for 1-2 days after adding pectin enzyme.
Spices and molasses are optional (can be added to this base recipe).
Chalk and K-Carbonate used to raise PH, and buffering.
Aerate before pitching 20 min +
Second nutrient addition after 2 days.
11-2025: making next batch with 1qt cranberry juice. 36oz cranberries (whole) and used rosehips (adding all in primary), back sweetening with lingonberry syrup. Rosehips are recycled from prior brew, dried and heat sanitized in the oven.
1-2026: Built this on tip of lees from cyser. Added orange peel, 2oz hops (Rakau hops), 71B and QA23 yeasts.

Notes: - Add acidulated malt 30 minutes into mash
- At 10 minutes remaining in boil, add both the ground coriander seed and the salt
- Add juice from 5 limes to secondary
Sourced from: https://byo.com/article/gose/
Pitching the 3056 first, then adding the 3278 later to finish out since it has all the souring bacteria.
Made a yeast starter with 1 can Proper and 1 pack of 3056. |

Notes: First batch was 5.25 gal of 1.112 (18 lbs of my honey added)
- Added Nardone yeast (2 packs, 3 in future) not cooled it down to room temperature after following yeast package. Overly sluggish start, took almost 5 days. Fermentation was sluggish. Fermentation had no airlock activity after 3 weeks. Lots of shaking to degass --> next time I will use the degassing tool that I have. Very sweet when sampled during first rack, but quite delightful.
Second batch was 4.5 gal of 1.096 (11 lbs added)
- Added half of the yeast (2 packs total) directly to the fermentor and half according to package instructions. Proper start, fermentation activity slowed after 2 weeks. Lots of shaking to degas --> next time I will use the degassing tool that I have. The first rack to secondaries tasted the best it ever had.
Secondaries
5.25 gal Sacred blue (8 lbs blueberries, 1 lb of mulberries) + 1.5 vanilla beans in tertiary (1 week) then add one cinnamon stick for another week (test it often)
2.5 gal of strawberry mead (3 lbs of strawberries and a handful of mulberries for colour) + tequila chips (1 week or so, test it often)
1 gal of lavender mead (2.2g of 3 week air-dried homegrown lavender, 6 days )
1 gal of chamomile mead (1 oz of chamomile from one SFB package, 6 days)
Any "left over" mead will become straight mead in a bottle.
- ZERO mead leftover. Perfect volumes.

other advice:
- I was using Lalvin EC - 1118 yeast is I was shooting for about 18% alcohol, but for most dark berry recipes I'd recommend Lalvin 71B-1122 vice D47. D47 is perfect for traditional Meads, 71B-1122 is made to bring out dark berry flavors. Just my opinion.
