I'm thinking of switching from bottled juice to concentrate.
I did a bit of searching and the consensus seems to be that tap water is fine for reconstituting frozen apple juice concentrate. Is that correct?
I've read very little about water conditioning for beer. Are there any suggestions/concerns in regard to conditioning water for cider?
I've been reading about suggestions to increase the body of cider. They are all over the map from using better juice, to non-fermentable sweetners like maltodextrin, and adjunct grains (instant oats?!?). It's all a little confusing. I love oaty beers (mmm oatmeal stout) and so I was curious about using some instant oats to increase body. Any thoughts? (beyond how hazy it might make the cider)
