    Hi P38

    You inspired me to give Nashi Cider making a go.

    Made two carboys one with SN9 & other with MA33

    Bottled after 20 days fermentation, was very dry however tasted good enough.

    Added 1.5 tspn of sugar to swing top bottles

    No sign of carbonation yet as far as I can tell

    Hi P38
    Thank you for your motivation and guidance!!

    I am very satisfied with the results, Nashi cider is crisp and clear, carbonated, but not overly so and not too dry.

    Have made 3 carboys this season and experimented with using my own honey to bring up the hydrometer reading to around 1060 prior to primary fermentation. Left over yeast from last season still worked and primary fermentation has stopped after 12 days, considering adding some sugar to get it going again or bottling as is, what do you think?
