hey guys and gals,
working on my first apple cider. took 3 gallons of apple juice (no additives), added 1/4 cup of dextrose and used 5gr of US-05 yeast. it's been fermenting now for a little over a week. i'm guessing that it's going to be rather dry. i would like to sweeten it up and bottle uncarbed.
What are my best options for backsweetening and to be able to store the bottles for a long period of time? would the pasturizing sticky work even though i'm not carbing it?
thanks in advance.
