Tow'd you must have a big hopper/crusher, or a lot of time on your hands if your using a old hand cranker like mine! That's a lot of juice! About home many pounds do you start with?
HWORRELL - haven't heard of those, it seems there are a ton of brands popping up everywhere, faster than microbrew pubs! And a lot of old brands that are only sold locally or regionally. My general experience is if it is super cheap, it's not as good as as a medium priced brew, but more expensive is not always more better in the realm of hard cider. If it comes in clear glass vs. brown or green, might be a better indicator. In general brown glass and green glass filters out more uv light damage than clear glass and so the cider or beer will taste fresher and better, than cider stored in clear glass, especially if it's kept out under sunlight or flourescent lights which really do affect the product in a short amount of time.Last edited by stovens; 11-04-2011 at 12:54 PM.
