[Mozza83]

Easy Recipe this one (and probably been done to death here!), a Strawberry Turbo Cider using Tinned strawberries... Expecting an ABV of around 5.9%

Ingredients
4 Litres of Apple Juice
2 Tins of Strawberries in Syrup (No additives, Preservatives or Flavourings)
1 tsp Yeast Nutrient
1 Sachet of Youngs Cider Yeast

Method

2: Put blended Strawberries in saucepan with 50ml of water and heat for 10 minutes on a medium heat. Allow to cool.

3: Whilst Strawberry mix is cooling, Pour 3 Litres of Apple Juice in Clean, Sterilised Demijohn.

4: Add the other tin of Strawberries to the Demijohn along with syrup.

5: When at room temperature, add the strawberry mix from the saucepan.

6: Take a hydrometer reading (1050 was my reading)

7: Add 1 tsp of Yeast Nutrient & Sachet of Yeast (Didn't Rehydrate yeast - only 4.5 litre batch)

Looks delicious. Will have to grab some strawberries and apple juice next time I'm at the supermarket.

Well, no packaged strawberries at my local supermarket so I grabbed some passionfruit pulp instead. I can see a few ciders which are mostly apple with just a bit of something else being brewed at mine soon. Still keen for strawberry in particular though.

I'm thinking of giving this a go how long does it take roughly for this to be ready. Sorry I'm a newbie. How can you tell it is done?

G'day Mate. I've made some cider recently and I used Barkers blackcurrant syrup which has no preservatives in it. I don't think I added enough though. The other one I bought and haven't used is a Cascade raspberry. The reason I haven't used it is because it does have preservatives so may or may not work after boiling. I've noticed Woolworths do a couple of syrups too, but also with preservatives.

Blackcurrant and raspberry sound tasty. 😋

Unfortunately my local Woolies is a couple o' hundred km away but I do try to keep brewing in mind when i go away and keep an eye on the local supermarket specials.

Mate, I'll do an experiment. I'll buy some of the Woolies stuff.
I'll boil it and add half a bottle to 3 litres of Woolies apple juice. I'll let you know how it goes. I'll try and start it this week.
I'm pretty sure the Woolies AJ is always $3 for 3 litres.

Sounds good. $3 for 3 L sounds good too!

With not much strawberry flavour I expect.
