Notes

My best tasting recipe and is very simple.
Ale Malt is now know as Vic Ale Malt, and the hops were actually cryo hops.
Very fruity, but is extremely mild to the pallet, if you drink Carlton Draught as your daily, you will easily slip into being able to drink this without calling it cider.

Fermentation lasts approx. 10 days in my stainless fermenter. 18 - 19 degrees steady.

US-05 / Californian Ale yeast's also work fantastic with this brew.

PH mash water to 5.0 - 5.2 .

Number's are to suit No Chill. Should you be chilling the wort, I suggest adjusting the hops to hit around 32 IBU.

I always force carbonate, so I can not speak to the bottle conditioning potentials.
