Redneck Cider #6: Apple Pear

New batch just started, using a 2L carton of a juice blend that came in a grocery delivery earlier.

It's all apple and pear, but doesn't specify the exact proportions.

When I sampled a couple of sips, the pear flavor was more subtle than I expected. If I had known that, I probably would have gotten some of this pear drink concentrate to add for the extra sugar too, but ah well. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Trying a new 2.5L water can sold for camping, which also came from ICA this afternoon. I spotted that, and decided to try it partly because it looked like this silicone carboy cap that I already had should be a perfect fit for this opening too.

But, nope! The stated diameter must have been for the outside of the lid, NOT the actual neck of the bottle. It's just frustratingly loose on there.

So, let's just try rubber banding it that last little bit to airtight! 😈 Don't see why that wouldn't work, annoying as the necessity may be.

I also decided to set the jug on the maybe 25C/77F tops radiator in my little dining nook lair for a while, to hopefully help keep the yeast happier as it gets going.

Keeping the actual recipe and procedure extra simple this time:

(As usual, the yeast nutrients are optional, but trying to keep the wee beasties well fed for better taste results.)

This juice must not have been quite as naturally sugary as the label is claiming, because the specific gravity reading in reality came out a tad lower than expected from adding that amount of sugar. But, it still came out to spot enough on 1.080/potential 10.7% ABV, which is totally fine. Aiming for flavor here, not rocket fuel! So, I decided to leave well enough alone and not tinker with it anymore.

This guy shows how to make something even simpler with Aldi juice, in case anybody is interested.

And his followup finishing up and trying that batch.

And another one with what looks like Walmart juice. Basically any kind can work, as long as it doesn't have preservatives besides vitamin C.

Ok, the nashi (apple pear) is the tastiest, juiciest, crispest piece of produce I’ve had in ages. This thing is amazeballs.
