Hi guys,

im about make up a john bull country cider kit for the misses.

ive already decided to make it up to 32 pints and not 40 as recommended with many cider kits but im unsure if to use 1kg of tate & lyle sugarbeet suar or 1 kg of dextrose.

what do you think??

table sugar will add 25% more alcohol than dextrose).

Table sugar it is then eh ! ? If my wife drank cider I'd go for that, get her tipsy, she might stop nagging me about the DIY I have to do on the house.
