making a slightly sweet cider

[Lars]

Has anyone ever tried(or know about) filtering yeast out of cider and force carbonating it to get a slightly sweet bottled cider. I could force carb in keg and transfer to bottles using blichmann beergun, just curious about the filtering stage?

Thanks

I have used some cleared (left in DJ and racked several times) turbo cider and carbonated it via a soadastream and bottled it in the past to take with me to friends houses etc.

Works fine.

Thanx Geezah but I'm wondering about leaving some residual sweetness by filtering yeast out of cider that hasn't reached FG and force carbing

I would ferment to dry, then stabilise with Sodium Met & pottasium Sorbate, then backsweeten and carbonate.
