I'll call it Apple Joose

[sneezles61]

I've had 5 gallons sitting in the fridge for a few days.. Today it went into the keg, forced carb...

This is my gizmo to push it into a purged keg...

So I racked some beer out of a fermenter yesterday.. Had apple juice.. So I just dumped it on the yeast cake... The OG was 1.046... Not quite 24 hours later its down to 1.032...
I have been using K-1116, but this one is 05... The last time I used 05 my gravity ended just below 1.000... I like it dry like that... seems to go well with alot of CO2... "champagne style"..
I am trying to find out what the difference is betwixt apple cider or juice from our grocery stores...

The juice from the store is usually made from concentrate. It's generally filtered of all the good stuff. I'd mash up some apples and toss them in. I've made cider from plain juice kind of thin taste wise

I did juice up a few wheel barrows loads... I do not think I can tell the difference.... I do serve mine cold and very much like champagne.. That could be the tell tale...

The apple juice I buy is called Indian summer... Its from over by Mr. Noobs area... They offer either cider or juice... The yeast is very busy... 1.013 this AM... Ill be curious if it stays so aggressive to the end... Usually, it creeps down after it reaches under .010..
