Cider
Species : Cider Fermentation Temp Range (F) : 50-86 Apparent Attenuation Range (%) : n/a Flocculation : n/a Alcohol Tolerance : 16%
Pitching/Fermentation : Rehydrate the desired quantity of yeasts in 10 times its weight of water at 95-100F.
– Stir avoiding the formation of lumps and leave to rest for 15 minutes.
– Progressively add must from the tank (2 or 3 additions) so that the temperature difference between the
yeast starter and the initial must does not exceed 50F. This stage allows the yeast to become acclimatized
and avoids a thermal shock.
Example: If must that needs to be pitched is 57F, the yeast starter temperature should not be more than
75F prior to inoculation.
– Stir and leave to rest for ~8-10 minutes after each must additions.
– Incorporate the yeast starter in the fermentation tank during a pumping over with aeration.
The rehydration procedure should not exceed 45 minutes.
Notes : For all types of ciders even under difficult fermentation conditions
Best Styles : Cider
