How to make 5 Gallons

of Hard Cider

Equipment:

6 Gallon Carboy
1 Drilled Rubber Stopper (#6 ½)
1 Airlock

Ingredients:

5 Gallons all natural cider
5 Pounds Dextrose
2 Packets C- brite
5 Campden Tablets
1 Packet Yeast (Montrachet)

Directions:

1. Make sure that your carboy is clean and sanitized by using C-Brite,

2. .8oz packets of C-Brite for a 6 gallon carboy, let carboy air dry. Add 1 pound of dextrose per gallon of cider into the carboy. Add the cider; leave about 4 inches at the top, no need to stir.

3. Put an airlock (1/2 filled with water) with the rubber stopper on the opening of the carboy and let cider ferment.

4. Once fermentation begins add 1 campden tablet per gallon of cider. 24 hours later add the yeast (1 pack per five gallons). Then let it set for at least 6 weeks to 11 months, the longer the better.
