Resting Turbo Cider

[Adam]

Hey,
i have 23 litres of turbo cider (alpha) ASDA AJ and CHampagne Yeast that i fermented for 12 days and bottled on the 10th January i have resisted drinking this brew at a tasty 5+%
plan was to let it rest for four weeks which is thursday ... how long do other people rest there TC?

I have also got ten litres of TC Omega which had a kg of brewing sugar and came out 12%ish ... this was started when the other stuff was bottled, it was bottled itself 23rd January... but when one of my bottle seemed to be deforming i opened it and let out gas... while open i tried it after only a weeks rest and it was gorgeous... that bottle has been consumed slowly over this week but i now must resist just under 33 litres of alcohol...
its hard.
how long are you all resting your beverages.

i've been enjoying the 12%er in a tumbler of an evening its warming and mellowing. Also a shot of it in a pint of cheap commercial cider (Sainsbury's Basic) makes a much more interesting and enjoyable drink.

good to know that if my resolve crumbles before thursday that the 5%er has probably peaked.

thanks and smiles

I've been known to drink it straight from the demijohn but the stuff I'm drinking now was made about five weeks ago.

Normally it's the brewer that needs resting not the TC

The Turbo Cider Omega is almost done. One week until drinking.

you'd be surprised how many have actually done this!..even the best of em on here probably have but wouldnt admit it

someone up the pub even mentioned doing this a few years back when i was telling them about my latest TC project...
