Notes

Used 4 gallons of apple cider from jungle jims. The apple cider had no preservatives. Added Cider (after shaking) to fermenter along with 2 crushed camden tablets and set for two days. Added Redstar champagne yeast at the end of 2nd day (5 grams dry) along with 4 tspns of yeast nutrient. Created tincture of Mint using vodka and mint leaves combined in mason jar. shake tincture daily. Did not grind mint leaves up. Approx 2 1/2 cups of leaves and 2 cups of vodka. Next add 1.7 ounces of pearl hops as dry hop once fermentation complete, ferment 3-4 weeks. tincture should be used after 3-5 weeks saturation. will add tincture to keg with cider at intervals to get the mint desired. crash in cooler one day before kegging with mint.
