use Bragg to ferment apple cider

I don't exactly know the answer, but I will say that this is not "active" yeast like you would use to bake bread. Almost 100% positive that that means no, it won't ferment apple juice, or anything else.

No, with the cider you want to use sugar not the drops. The drops give no flavor or abything so it won't be sweet and it won't make it fizz either because it's hard cider not beer.

If the beer is already carbonated then just fill it. If you brew it yourself and have active yeast present then you would add sugar

Hi Shelly! Actually, the longer you ferment the MORE vinegar taste. So for this batch I would stop fermenting and if it's too vinegary, simply add your favorite juice, tea, even club soda to cut the taste. And for future batches ferment for less days.. this can be achieved by taste testing your kombucha a few times a day to pick the time that's right for you! Happy Brewin', Dave :)

Sorry Scott, I have no idea, bought it for my Husband who brews Hard cider.

As long as it is a liquid, if there is alcohol in the liquid i know it will not give an accurate read (usually too high). These are intended to be used before fermentation. I would suggest getting a hydrometer and plastic cylinder for more accurate readings. Typically you will need around 10-12 fluid oz to fill the cylinder and get a reading. A hydrometer is around 8-10 bucks usually

Hi, I just made apple cider jelly with Wood's Boiled Cider (sold on Amazon), diluted 1 part cider to 7 parts water. sugar or splenda to taste. It didn't set at first, but overnight in the refrigerator and it was loose jello consistency. I had used only 4 TB of the pectin, but in the morning, I mixed more in and put back in refrigerator. Much thicker later.

Don, there Juice in the kit, along with all the other ingredients you need, such as yeast, finings, sorbate, etc. what you need is a plastic fermenting pail, a glass or Plastic approved 6 gal carboy, and some other misc stuff. I would recommend getting a starter kit that comes with all that like the one here: http://www.amazon.com/Deluxe-Wine-Making-Quality-Durable/dp/B000FBOWQW it's about $100 at Amazon.

If you have a steam cleaner you can add a cup of Apple Cider Vinegar with the water and clean it. If you don't have a steam cleaner then mix a 50/50 solution of Apple Cider Vinegar and distilled water, and let it sit overnight (or longer if possible). Rinse with distilled water.

Yes, this kit contains many of the items you need for hard cider, such as the fermenter, bottling bucket, hoses, bottle capper, airlocks, etc. Anything specific to hard cider that is not used in beer (like an apple crusher, if you're crushing your own apples) is obviously not included.

i would pump apple cider vinegar and water through it, that should suffice. or even bleach and water, depends on what you use it for. mine works great.

I don't make wine, but normally I use about three teaspoons in a 6 gallon ferment and it really takes off. My ferment finishes much quicker with the nutrient. I am also very careful with my PH!!!!

there are all ingredients in bottle to make 2 gallons of hard cyder. so no not just apples juice

That depends mostly on the temperature at which you will be fermenting. If you can keep it in the 60-65 degree range, Use lager yeast. If you will be fermenting at a higher temperature, you should use an ale yeast.

You can use this for grain recipes to convert the starches into fermentable sugars to increase to ABV of the beer.

i think you could use growlers. i bought a "true brew" ingredient pack off amazon. was a gift but has good ratings... gl

Yes, you may get some instant foaming as you add it but it subsides shortly. The mash or wort should begin to ferment rather vigorously. I now add my nutrient along with some Camden tablets and some lemon juice and get a really good ferment going. Good luck!
