Nomsters, you guys are in for a treat because Chris Singlemann is back at it with another video. This fall-friendly clip is going to give you all the feels, especially if you like cider as much as we do. So, if you want to take things up a notch, keep watching because Chris is gonna drop some serious knowledge on y’all today.
So, what’s better than cider? Hard cider, duh. All you need is a mason jar, a fermentation lid and airlock, apple cider (without preservatives), a champagne or wine yeast and sanitizer. Start by sanitizing everything the cider will touch to kill off any natural bacteria or yeast that will throw off your process.
Heat up a cup of your cider between 100-105 degrees, then pour it into your mason jar. He adds a quarter teaspoon of yeast, but you can go up to a half! The heated cider helps proof the yeast and gets it’s nice and foamy to kickstart the fermentation process, and after 5 minutes or so, add the rest of your cider leaving a little room at top so it can breathe. To learn more about how to make a bomb hard cider at home, watch Chris’ video.
