Experiments continue with TC

Post by randomdave » Mon Jan 05, 2009 3:47 pm

Ok prior to obtaining 2 demijons I wasnt overly fussed about cider, it was the 3rd drink of choice in most pubs i go to. Now howver Im enjoying the cheap tasty booze. My first batch was just 4lt of AJ fermented (with bread yeast like a heathen) then primed with another carton of aj an bottled. To start with it was rough as a badgers knee. 3 weeks later cracked a bottle an it was a lovely pint.

The second batch i made with 3lt of AJ 1lt of AJ+Raspberry. Ive not tried this yet as ive decided to let it sit an condition.

now the 3rd is a different animal altogether an im not sure how to treat it, 2lt of aj an 2lt of blackcurrant, so I spose TECHNICALLY its more of a wine than cider. so im not 100% sure how to treat it when it comes to the end of fermentation, should i treat it as cider an prime an bottle or should i not bother priming an bottle as a wine?

any suggestions?
