  • Easy and non-scientific - I made rough / hard apple cider from UK tescos store bought apple juice concentrate (aldi or lidl would work too and maybe cheaper). I added 250grams of sugar and 4 teaspoons of Turbo Yeast - This is ROCKET FUEL - Two pints and I'm a happy drunk! I do the breathalyser test and hit way above the limits! Want a quick cider, but don't want to pulp, press and juice some apples? This is a fantastic method! Dubious Brewing 😀

    Sometime between 1970 and 1974, I and the wife were stationed at RAF Bentwaters. Wife and I rented a bungalow on a farm in Carlton nr Saxmundham. (still remember our telephone number, Saxmundham 2708, Hah!) One evening we invited another USAF military family over for a few drinks and a card game or two. Somehow we discovered a store which sold scrumpi by the imperial gallon for only 50p and we could return for refills of the same jug. Ohhhh, that was good stuff. I think we went through 3 jugs. Mind you, it only gave us a slight buzz, but it was a good buzz. Never forgot it. I just recently remembered what the stuff was called and here I am. Hmmmm.... I just might have to brew some up! Cheeers!

    Brings me back to my youth, when a friends father cooked up his own beer in the cellar, and we would sneak down and tap off a few pints to enjoy.

      Bottle it in plastic coke bottles a little early... just before the bubbling stops and that gas will be trapped in the bottles and make it fizzy! Be careful not to bottle too early as the bottles could explode if there’s too much pressure

      Just one more question to make the cider stronger add more sugar is that right

      @@DubiousEngineering and to add a little to King Dubious I, it is fully carbonated when the plastic bottle (if that's what you're using) gets hard like an unopened bottle of soda. At that point, drink it or put it in the refrigerator. If you leave it out you may get a bottle bomb - a bottle that builds up too much CO2 pressure inside and explodes. It can make a hell of a mess, could even hurt someone. Worse - you've wasted your alcohol!

    Really only 250g of sugar?

      Hi Pikachu - yes, maybe add a little more if you prefer a sweeter stronger cider!

      Haha! You have inspired me, I wonder how it would be if you really splashed out on some Cawston press juice,
      How different is the process if I was to actually squash some apples?

    • @DubiousEngineering
      @DubiousEngineering  3 года назад +1

      Not a lot different... you need to press the apples, filter them, and you’re away ... it’s a messy job and some special equipment is required.

      @@DubiousEngineering I think that’s a joke but in case it’s not to get a higher concentration alcohol you need distill it or else it can’t get anything above around give or take 16%
