Maybe get quotes for pallet drops.

Silly question time, but I assume with this, it's a case of it's picked up on the day, then same day members coordinate to pickup from their local club and brew within the next 24/48 hours?

Never done a cider before - quite excited to give this a go now! About the only thing I know is I don't want it to be cloyingly sweet.

We just cracked our first of last yrs bottles. Reasonably dry cider lots of fruity aroma and flavour is very good. This was a batch let go on its own wild yeasts and worked out well.

That was very restrained of you Bren. I'm down to the last few bottles and trying to make them last!

A couple of points to consider:

The fresh AJ is good for more than a few days. It does not have to be processed in 24 hours or less.

If you just leave it as it is and replace the screwcap with an air-lock it will self ferment using natural yeasts
About half of the last GB was fermented like this.

Option 2 is to use campbden tablets (amount depends on the pH) to suppress the wild yeasts and pitch a yeast of choice.

For more info just read the start of my CIDER 101 thread!

1250 so far by my reckoning!

PS: Maybe we should get hold of one of those hugh shinny ss food grade artic tankers (30,000 L plus).

We fill her up and just drive round the clubs/punters and couple up the big hose!
