Turbo cider with molasses sugar?

Post by Liverpool-Lad » Tue Jul 30, 2013 7:38 pm

An interesting thought, Ive seen the usual 'added honey' brews & Ive done a couple myself.

Has anyone tried any of the dark sugars such as molasses to see which effect this has on the TC?

I did one years ago, added cinnamon, turned out a quite nice xmas drink, full bodied and rich.

Ive added around 100g to an existing brew still on the go, lets see what we get. :)

Fraid not, your recipe sounds good, I think I added one stick of cinnamon which I could use in two ciders before the flavour went. May have been around 250gms of brown sugar but can't be sure.
