I opened first two bottles of my #cider the test batches with hops and spices.
The one with hops needs another month in bottles - it smells amazing but it still has too much bitterness. I don’t know why it is noticeably darker and why it makes foam like beer.
The one with spices tastes too much like Christmas (I just don’t know how to describe it better). So it is good but not exactly the season for it. I can imagine it will be good with some Christmas cookies or something like that.
I like more the Christmas one (because it is ready to drink now), my boss on the other hand likes more the hopped one. (Yes I drink at work)
I am excited for the batch with oak chips and the basic cider, which I will probably taste next week.
404? Your dark arts are being suppressed!
I think that it is temporary mastodon problem, I can’t view anything on that instance.
