Notes

This is my recipe for Cider:

I used 15 gallons of pasteurized cider from Reverend Nats. It's a blended apple juice. Fermenting in a 15gal Sanke Keg

The OG of the juice is 1.055

Pitched 2 packs of Napoleon from Imperial Yeast.

Fermentation chamber set to 20C (68F)

NOTE on Brewers friend: They didn't have a category for fermentables for Apple Juice. Added "apples" until I got the OG where it needed to be.
