Bottled Mystery Cider


I completely forgot about this one. Its been sitting in its fermenter since the end of May and I finally got around to bottling over a month later. This is the very first (and possibly last) beverage I have created by simply dumping the mixture straight on top of the yeast cake of recently bottled beer. If this turns out to be a drinkable cider I may start doing this for all of my finished beers.

I primed it with about a 1/2 cup of demerara sugar and managed to squeeze about 20 pints and 10 bottles of this odd-ball cider out of it. The final gravity was 1.000, giving it in ABV of about 5% and a very low calorie count of about 160kcal a pint.

Next week I will pop one of this concoctions into the fridge and try it out.
