Hi.
I'm newish (last brewed over 25 years ago) to this brewing business.
I have been gathering all the necessary equipment and think i'm about ready to brew....
Thought i'd begin with a simple turbo cider, so i have waiting 20 litres of apple juice, and some Alcotec 48 turbo super yeast, recommended by the store i bought my gear from, i'm unsure how to use these ingredients, or if the yeast is suitable ?, do i use all the yeast for 20 litres ? (seems a lot !), do i need to heat the juice to activate yeast, and do i need any further ingredients ?, there are a few use strong tea i believe !.
Like i say, just a basic simple brew will do for starters......
Any advice welcome, many thanks
P.S. It states on the yeast packet "Do not use an airlock", any idea why ?.....
