Haha yes. I do indeed mean 6g/L.

I feel a bit silly for not comparing the amount of CO2 in the chart to what you would find in practice. In comparison, a bottle of coke has an estimated 6.2g/L of CO2 dissolved in it, according to some egghead over at stackexchange. But, looking at that chart leads me to believe you don't need...

I know i'm gravedigging, but it's not the pressure that will kill the yeast but the pH as a result of the dissolved CO2. I wonder could this be used to have drinks finish sweet and carbonated? I don't think autolysis occurs either so no nasty yeasty taste.

Yeah, I've tried using this numerous times, the outcome always horrible. I literally had to pinch my nose and drink it. Even at that I threw the rest of it out.

Also, will the Apple juice not go out of date? It says on the package that it runs out in 3 weeks time... Or is that when it looses its quality?

Not alot though compared to grains. Everything is going to have Methanol in it, just a negligable amount.

Aw, ****. I meant fermentation, I had to write that out twice because I wasn't logged in.

Methanol is formed as a byproduct of fermentation when pectin is present. Methanol is concentrated in distillation. Usually grains are used in making moonshine. Pectin is always present however in small quantities. Pectin comes from grass cuttings, starch, wood, etc. When you use table sugar/...

So last question, a 5g pack is for 5 gallons, so obviously 1g for 1 gallon. So can I use 0.5 grams for half a gallon? Or is that too much like common sense :P

Thanks for the replies, I was wary whether or not I would receive any at the bottom of this forum but there you go! I'll wait until it comes, also was I right to order White Wine yeast?

I can't believe there's so much sugar in the juice already. Jesus, how can you wait that long. I'd be buzzing around the house waiting for it to be ready. How long do you reckon mine should take? I see what you're doing.... I'm upper sixth year 13.

While I want it ready fast I want the alcoholic content of a wine. I want to conserve the Yeast I have! At ?1.55 a 5g packet :rolleyes: I'm brewing in my room or if you mean country, UK. Edit: How come pound signs don't work here :?

Hey, I'm new here and I'd quite like to get started in the Home Brewing hobby. I was looking to make some kind of Cider and then I seen Apfelwein. I was messing around for a bit with Bread Yeast and the results were horrible, I swear. I did about 5 or 6 different batches; all horrible...
