3/19/2019 1:04 AM over 5 years ago	+9	Brew Day Complete		4 Gallons		2/20/2021 3:43 AM over 3 years ago	4 gallons of apple juice, 1 lb brown sugar, yeast nutrient and dry US-05 straight on top. This should be a winner.
3/19/2019 1:05 AM over 5 years ago	+9	Other				2/20/2021 3:43 AM over 3 years ago	It's about high krausen right now. Fermentation started very slow, it was clear for a few days, then started bubbling, and now is cloudy and has a krausen. Airlock activity is slowing, should be done fermenting fairly soon I'd think...
3/20/2019 2:11 AM over 5 years ago	+10	Sample	1.030		63.7 °F	2/20/2021 3:43 AM over 3 years ago	Still tastes like straight apple juice still, surprised the fermentation has proceeded so slowly. Don't know the OG, but it can't have been much more than double what the gravity is now. Back of the envelop calculation of OG gets me roughly 1.06 (1.048 apple juice plus .012 from brown sugar. 0.25 lb/gallon = roughly 3 gram/ml = roughly 3 degrees plato = roughly 12 gravity pts.)
3/27/2019 2:35 AM over 5 years ago	+17	Sample	1.006		68.4 °F	2/20/2021 3:43 AM over 3 years ago	Tastes a lot more like cider, and is nearly done fermenting! Has somewhat of a weird taste, I'm wondering if that is the yeast, which isn't a super popular cider yeast. Will probably package soon to preserve some of the last of the sugars.
3/30/2019 4:51 PM over 5 years ago	+20	Packaged		4 Gallons		2/20/2021 3:43 AM over 3 years ago	Broke all my test tubes so no gravity measurement, but it tastes pretty good and dry. Should be much better once cold and carbed.
4/2/2019 1:52 AM over 5 years ago	+23	Tasting Note				2/20/2021 3:43 AM over 3 years ago	Basically fully carbonated, and tastes pretty good! A bit tart, but it has that distinctive apple juice taste still. Fairly dry but not overly so.

Notes

4 gallons of indian summer apple juice into fermenter with 1 lb of brown sugar. Add yeast nutrient right on top and pitch US-05 straight on top.
