I am picking up some Apple Natural Select (6 Gal) next week. They list it at 22 brix, that comes to 1.092 OG, 12.9 potential alcohol.
I want to make cider so I am looking to drop the OG down to about 1.050, 6.6 potential alcohol. I found a chart that says 2Qt will drop OG of 5gal by.0.010.
I figured I need to add aprox 10 quarts give or take to get me where I need to be. Does this sound about right? Any other additions I need to add to the water? Thanks for the help.
I agree that most Apple juIce runs in that OG range. Google doesn’t return any positive results for Apple natural select except for some maggots. I would advise against fermenting them.
I am buying it from a place called Consumer Fresh Produce in Pittsburgh. They sell fresh juice to make wine. When I was ordering my juice this was a product listed. Obviously it is concentrated for an apple wine use. Anyone have knowledge on my question? Thanks
Thanks loopie. I s there a calculator on line for that? The juice comes in 6 gallon buckets. 5 gal should put me close. I will go low and test add more water if needed.
