WHAT’S INSIDE THE PACKET?

Inside you will find two separate compartments. The first has the cider mix (liquid side) and the other side (dry side) contains the cider yeast, hops and full instructions.

To make this kit you will need to add 1Kg sugar at the start for the yeast to convert into alcohol. You will also need sugar or carbonation drops at the end of fermentation when the cider goes into a keg or bottles.

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU NEED?

To make this kit you will need the standard basic brewing equipment. This includes a fermenter (to ferment the cider), airlock to keep out the oxygen but allow gasses to escape),  sanitiser (to ensure that the equipment is clean and sanitised, spoon (to stir and mix the contents together).  Also recommended is a thermometer (to check the temperature of the cider as it ferments), hydrometer (to see if the cider has fermented out and all the sugars have converted into alcohol) and a syphon kit (to transfer the cider into bottles or a keg for serving, leaving the sediment behind in the fermenter.

CAN YOU IMPROVE THE CIDER?

By adding Pure Brew at the start, this will remove the chlorine and chloramine from the brewing water and also give the yeast enough nutrients for a healthy and good fermentation.

TIPS:

The yeast supplied contains sweeteners. If you want a dry cider, we recommend using the Harris Premium Cider Yeast instead of the one that is supplied.
