How much sugar to prime 2 gallons of cider? 2 oz in one cup water?
A couple of online calculators suggest that would get you 2.7 volumes.
Sweet works for me. Thanks
I would use less. 1.5 oz should be plenty.
Too late. First cider try. 2 gal juice, half packet us05. Finished (dropped clear) at 1.008. Its just for fun. I used just shy of 2oz and bottled in fliptop pounders. Hoping for a little fizz by thanksgiving but not holding my breath
If you want carbonation by Thanksgiving, good luck… Keep the cider real hot at like 80 F and maybe you’ll get there. Otherwise it typically takes a good month to carbonate your cider.
That’s what I figured. I might bring a few bottles and do the hot cinnamon cider thing.
