Muntons Elderflower Cider

Post by Wooderson » Mon Jul 12, 2010 5:10 pm

Hi, i've got one of these kits that I want to get done to catch the end of summer with.It seems a standard cider kit but has some elderflower flavouring and sweetner to add at the end.Problem is it recommends racking to a seperate FV before adding so as not to dsturb the sediment when mixing it in but I only have one FV.What would be the best way to tackle this?

Cheers

Lol not exactly the answer I was looking for.I'm guessing there's a reason you can't add it at the beginning so I suppose let it finish,add the additional ingredients and leave it a couple of days to resettle before bottling.Sound good to you?

i suppose given the circumstances thats all you could do, unless you get enough PET bottles (pop bottles) transfer it to them, clean your FV and transfer it back, but you going to have to be VERY careful with sanitation!!

Muntons Elderflower Cider sounds good, I haven't seen this in my local store, where did you get it from? All I can find is that Magnum rubbish
