And this time I will be really brewing it. Yes, I know that a few weeks back I said that I will brew the Apfelwein but instead I brewed another batch of beer. Yes, sorry about that but those are requested by my friends and I had no choice. It’s sad that they don’t drink cider. But not to worry, I will be weening them towards it soon enough. However, from what I have read, this Apfelwein is somewhat a very delicious drink with a lot of kick in the end. And the females love it too. Something of a plus when you are doing your own brewing as the wife or the girlfriend would not be gunning for you when you dirty the kitchen or when you are spending hours in the kitchen instead of accompanying them.

If you would like the recipe, please take a look at my old post. It’s based on Edwort’s recipe(from Homebrewtalk.com) but instead I will be using Fuji Apple Juice. I am sure that it will turn out great as I always liked Fuji apples. They are much sweeter and aromatic compared to other apples. Hopefully, it will turn out just as sweet (or at least more sweet) instead of a dry hard cider which a lot of people had said it would. Oh, adding sugar to the “brew” will not help as it wll just ferment out and give it more alcohol.

Have any of you tried before this very easy but award winning recipe? All you have to do is to get all your apple juice (must not have any preservatives), add in some sugar and then the yeast. Leave it for about 4 weeks or so to ferment out and you are done. No need to do any boiling, mashing, steeping, avoiding boilovers and whatever. Just add juice. Nothing can be simpler than that. And if all goes well, I think I will be doing more of this.
