Mmmmm. Let me know how it turns out. I bet it is a ton better than my store bought stuff.
When I bottled my cider today, I was really impressed. I think it is my best to date, but the wife said it isn't.....hmmm....but, I think with age, carbonation, and cold, she will change her mind!
But- I think I will always use wood chips with cider. It seems to give it an earthy warmth.
