And it now has a kick to it that I can taste and feel

Did it ease the pain in neck and shoulders?

Did it ease the pain in neck and shoulders?

Actually yes. Feel no more pain

Was that just the juice or with extra sugar?

Just the juice, straight from the carton.

My cloudy apple cider

Looks like a tasty German wheat beer without the head. My last batch of Apple cider brewed from liquifruit clear Apple juice looks similar, and tastes just as delicious as yours looks.

Just the juice, straight from the carton.

That's a high SG. My juice's sugar is 10g/100ml and yours is 12g/100ml. I even added 450g to the about 9.5L. So I'm a bit surprised at yours as mine is 1.062.

I was also surprised; I usually make apple cider from apples I run through the liquidiser and the gravity is much lower i.e. I usually bump it a little with extra sugar. Guess liquifruit adds extra sugar even though they say they don't?

That would be a fair conclusion.

That would be a fair conclusion.

That being said; the cider from liquifruit clear apple juice is delicious; pushed the ABV and didn't back sweeten it; a really nice brut cider.

My Liquifruit mango and orange cider was diluted 2:1 with water, 1kg sugar, started out at 1.070, got down to 1.020 in the fermenting vessel, and is still fizzing like mad in the bottles 4 weeks down the line! A bit too potent, but @Papa Smurf would love it. The missus drinks it with a Liquifruit mango and orange mix

i started a ginger beer batch this afternoon
35 minutes after screwing the cap on the airlock is bubbling fuck i love making alcohol

I used to make ginger beer myself - mainly for the CO2 I needed for my planted tank and it became an hobby itself as I couldn't bear to waste the fermented liquid. Oooo I got pissed on it lol and some friends took a few bottles too. They loved it.

I was so sad when the lid on my Coopers' fermenter cracked. I now only have the Mangrove Jack fermenter for beer, so one batch at a time
