Black Rock Cider

Post by flatpick »

Any suggestions as to a fermentable for Black Rock Cider. Also, has anyone noticed that one teaspoon of sugar in the bottle still seems to leave the cider flatt, I have been using a desert spoon to get a decent bubble. Any ideas. Fred

Hi Fred,

Check out these previous posts:

I can't recommend my No.35 Black Rock Cider highly enough. See http://www.homebrewandbeer.com/ourhomebrews.html

Let us know if there's anything else.

Cheers,

Oliver

Gotta agree re the Cider. I followed Olivers recipe and its a great drop. The missus is very impressed though finds it is still a bit dry for her taste. Perhaps next time will add extra lactose.

Thanks for that Oliver, any thoughts on the amount of sugar in the bottle, have you noticed any of youre brews being flat with the recomended amount of sugar per bottle. Fred.

Fred,

I haven't had any problems. I usually slightly underprime my beers, too.

I can't suggest any cause for your problem, sorry. It's very strange.

Oliver
