Cider Ingredients
Method
Cider Preparation
Prepare the Apples
Wash and core the apples, then chop them into quarters. Keep the skins on for a more rustic flavor and color.
Juicing the Apples
Using a cider press or juicer, extract the juice from the chopped apples into a large clean container.
Adding Flavor
Add the cinnamon sticks to the mixture for flavor. Allow to cool down to room temperature.
Fermentation
Once cooled, transfer the mixture to a fermentation vessel and add the yeast. Seal the vessel with an airlock.
Fermenting Period
Allow the cider to ferment in a cool, dark place for about 2-4 weeks, checking regularly until fermentation has slowed down.
Aging
Store the bottles in a cool, dark place for at least 2-3 months to develop flavor before enjoying.
