How much cider yeast do i add to this Roddy please?

 

[Roddy]

A sachet (5-9g depending on brand) usually does 25L matey

I use a cider yeast with sweetener I get from ebay (takes the edge off the dryness), but have also used the Youngs, Mangrove Jacks and Gervin cider yeasts, which are fine too

Just a quick one Roddy, do i need to put yeast nutrient in with this turbo cider recipe?

 

[Roddy]

I never use nutrient, doesn't need it, bung it in if you like though mate, won't do any harm

Thanks Roddy

Hi Roddy when you say to batch prime with 300g of sugar could I just prime individual bottle because I've never batch primed?

you sure can matey...

I've not done it this way before, cos it would be a pain in the a*$% to do it for 40 odd bottles, which is my usual batch.

Reading up on it, it looks like a heaped tsp of sugar is about 4.2g apparently, which wouldn't be enough for me, as I like it pretty fizzy.

An easier (less messy) option might be to use carb drops, which you can plop into the bottle when bottling, I used these for a couple of my early brews before I got the hang of batch priming. I would use two of those per 500ml bottle for a decent fizz.

Thanks Roddy I think I'll have go at batch prime being it seems lot easier than individual bottles.

How did you calculate the sugar content for that cider recipe you gave me. ?

 

[Roddy]

Was it the spreadsheet? I can't remember

You taking about the whole thing or just priming?
