Samson's West Country Country
£13.95
This makes a sparkling West Country style cider which can be bottled or barrelled.
It contains 1.7kg of apple juice concentrate, comes with a sachet of yeast, requires the addition of 1kg of sugar and makes 40 pints of cider with an ABV of about 4.5%.
This particular cider has a beautiful bouquet aided by the inclusion of a little malt extract & makes a wonderfully balanced cider - converted me into cider drinking, aided in the knowledge of apple juice's anti-oxidant properties.
Thoroughly digestible.

Brewing & Winemaking Sugar - 1kg
£2.10More detail and information
This will produce a cleaner & faster ferment.
The sugar is a spray dried glucose which dissolves easily in cold liquids to form a syrup and importantly leaves no after taste.
It aids fast fermentation & can be used for priming during the secondary fermentation.
It is is highly recommended for use in making beers, liqueurs and wines in preference to household sugar.
Worth the extra pence per pint or bottle.
