Jarvo_325 Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Hey I'm going to throw this out there, its a bit different just wanted people opinions. I know its far better to use all apple juice to make up the cider, but I had an idea (probably stupid idea) and wondered what people thought. I have used Blackrocks apple cider kit in the past along with 3L Juice and 1kg of Dex with some pretty good results. I was wondering would cottees apple cordial give the cider more apple taste? Or do bugger all for the taste, just boost the the alcohol content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamB8 Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 it has Sodium metabisulphate and Sodium Benzoate in it, both like to kill yeast [crying] You could add it to your cider when it hits a prefered gravity to kill the yeast and keep in the residual sweetness/apple flavour but I dont know what flavours it will introduce.

Hairy Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 You may have to stick to apple cordial, vodka and sparkling mineral water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
