Black Rock Cider

Start Date: 14th June 2001
Bottle Date: 10th July 2001

Ingredients

1Black Rock Cider kit
1kgGlucose
1 sachet (7g)Cider Yeast (from kit)

Method

Followed directions as per can, filling to 23.0 litres. Nothing special in preparation.

We either bottled too early, or added too much sugar when priming. Probably the latter. This was called our 'exploding cider' after a number of bottles exploded.
