Notes: from https://brewtogether.com/2019/10/05/homebrewed-cider/:
-Add the 4 gallons of pasteurized apple cider or juice and 2 containers of the guava nectar to a sanitized carboy.
Pitch the yeast according to the instructions on the packet.
Ferment for approximately 21 days. Fermentation will be rapid for a few days and then slow for a couple of weeks. Ferment completely dry.
-Once fermentation has stopped and you have taken a gravity reading to make sure it’s done, you’re ready to keg the cider (if you don’t keg, jump down a few paragraphs to the bottling instructions).
-Rack from carboy into cleaned/sanitized keg.
-Add 1/4 tsp to 1/2 tsp of Potassium Metabisilfite to the keg. Purge the headspace from the keg with Co2 and cold crash.
-Wait 24 hours.
-After 24 hours, add 2.5 tsp of Potassium Sorbate. You need to wait the 24 hours so that you have some sulfite in the cider before you add the sorbates or you will end up with some off flavors. Purge the headspace in the keg a couple of times with Co2 and cold crash.
-Wait 3 days.
-After 3 days, backsweeten with 1-2 containers of thawed frozen apple juice concentrate (to taste) and 2 containers of the Goya Guava Nectar.
-Seal and purge the airspace in the keg, then put it under pressure to begin carbonation. I just carbonated it slowly at about 10-12 psi, which worked perfectly for it.
-It’s drinkable pretty much immediately, but if you can wait 3-4 weeks it will improve substantially in flavor. You may have sediment settle at the bottom of your keg. If you find the first pint is a slushy ugly pink mess, pull another pint or two before worrying too much – I had to pull about 20 oz before it got to the good stuff.
-Enjoy

Notes: Working Clone of Lagunita's 12th Of Never. Any input good, bad, or ugly appreciated!
~Note low efficiency! Correct for own equipment
~Yeast not critical, just clean
~03/09/19 Adjusted Hop Profile... Again
~05/29/19 Adjusted Equipment Profile For New Setup.
~07/01/19 Finished first keg. Made for a fantastic IPA
More tropical than a 12th
~02/26/20 Getting ready to brew again, making more adjustments
-Added sparge step to better efficiency vs full volume mash
-Adjusted water profile for softer profile
-Added Acidulated Malt instead of Lactic Acid for Mash PH
-Swapped out Cashmere hops for Citra hops
-Lowered temp and extended whirlpool for better hop isomerazation
-Doubled dry hop quantities
-Might change yeast?

Notes: Yeast Alternatives: Wyeast 1056 (American Ale) or Fermentis US-05.
A day or two before brew day make a yeast starter if using a liquid strain.
On brew day, steep the crushed grain in 2 gallons of water as it warms to reach 150 °F, approximately 20 minutes. Remove grains from the wort and rinse with 4 quarts of hot water. Add the liquid to reach a total of 3 gallons and bring to a boil.
If you can do a full volume (5.5 gal) boil, it is recommended.
Turn off heat, add malt extract and corn sugar (dextrose), and stir until completely dissolved. Return to heat and add first hop addition.
Continue to add hop additions at intervals per ingredients list.
Cool the wort to room temperature, then top off with cold, filtered water to reach 5.5 gallons.
Pitch yeast starter and ferment at 64-70 °F.
Following primary fermentation (about 2 weeks), dry hop for five days before bottling or transferring to keg.
Prime to 2.3 volumes of CO2.
