Session 1: Getting Fresh Pressed Juice & Pitching Yeast
You’ll picking up juice from our favorite local orchard for everyone to use as the base of your cider. There will be a discussion about the different varieties of local apples available, their characteristics, and history of cider making apples. Together, we will measure the sugar density of the fresh juice, then everyone will rehydrate and add yeast to their own gallon of fresh juice to begin the fermentation process. In addition learn about the science behind turning sugar into alcohol while enjoying a glass of Hale & True and sampling different styles of cider.
