antg 1,787 Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 People should remember, the scrumpy evaporates once opened... some nice yeast in the bottom of that. few cartons of apple juice and you will get some turbo cider from that with a bit of care. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

antg 1,787 Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 get a carton of apple juice (cheap supermarket brand will do) and pour it in. try and keep it at a stable temp of around 20 degrees. give it a gentle swirl every now and then and with a bit of luck that yeast will come to life in a couple days. once its away and fermenting add another carton. don't tighten the top down, jost losse will do as you dont want the bottle to explode. with a bit of luck in a couple weeks you will have a turbo cider if it hasn't fermented your apple juice will be fine to drink stil. so you wont lose anything Quote Link to post Share on other sites

neil cooney 10,416 Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 Here in Ireland Cider only became popular around 20 or so years ago and I often heard it called Tinkers Whiskey. During the war apparently Cider was stored in old Whiskey barrels and the cider drew the whiskey out of the oak, making it stronger. It was cheap and blew yer head off and the Tinkers loved it. Anyone ever heard it called Tinkers whiskey before. Bulmers and Magners is the same by the way. Bulmers in Eire, Magners else where. I fancied The Cider Maker in the 2.55 in Plumpton today. Third.
