| Add honey to 3/4 gallon of the cider, and heat in order to dissolve the
honey. Skim the scum (wax) off the top of the cider when it appears.
Add brown sugar, allspice, nutmeg, malt extract, and yeast nutriet, mixing
well. Boil cloves in a small amount of water in another pot for several
minutes. Add the cider/honey mixture and clove water to the primary fermenter.
Top up to 5 gallons with cider. Drop in the cinnamon sticks. Pitch yeast.
I had basically no idea on the amounts for the spices. I may need to add more
when I transfer to the secondary. |
