Nicely put.

Sounds optimistic and vaguely threatening at the same time.

Redwino bring it along anyway as it's educational for all who will attend. You will get some tips also on how to avoid them.

Suspect that would be way too young to drink, unless your artificially carbonating it? If your attending would you update the list please?

What list are you referring to? And cider naturally carbonates itself.

We put our names on the list of attendees, along with what we're bringing. Let's everyone plan how much to bring.

While it naturally carbs, that takes a few weeks, not that cider needs to be carbed. Also our ciders usually take a year at least before we start to think they're in a suitable condition to drink.

Thanks Molc

Finally someone that has given the info that I needed to hear, I've only attended two meets and still getting use to this. I'm assuming it the yeast names your looking for, the berry I used Safcider which came out at 5.8% and apple had no brand name name on it, which came out at 2.3%

Is this thread the attendance list or do I have go to a different page to do that?

As for the cider I'm bottling this weekend you'll get to sample that next month when it has carbonated itself.

Post by: pob on September 23, 2016, 10:17:05 PM
Unlike beer which is usually ready to drink once carbonated (but will usually benefit from a week or twos conditioning), cider does really need time to develop. Stick on a few more batches & put these recent ones aside for 3-6-9 months for it to mature while you build up your cache of bottles.

A lot of last year's group buy crop is only being drunk up now.

Yes, you can drink it once it's fermentated but you're doing it no justice, give it time.
Title: Re: South Dublin Brewers - Next Meet - Thursday, 29th September
Post by: molc on September 24, 2016, 10:34:01 AM
Yeah I put 5L aside from last year's group buy and tapped it in July. Just starting to come good now and I have another keg of it to enjoy over the next year. Takes ages for good cider to mellow and develop.

Anything that's drinkable we'll try and give feedback. One of the guys brought a light ginger beer a few months ago and it was amazing.

Jams, chutneys etc are best at a different event, as we don't have permission to bring our own foods to the meets.

Looking like a lovely mix of beers/ciders/ wines for the meet - guessing it's a two bottle job each now and we're at about 8. Don't ask me for intelligent feedback tonight though - have a headcold and all I can taste is bitter it seems :/
