Cider Class – DIY Cider – Fermenting Cider at Home @Madison Tasting Room

DIY Cider – Fermenting Cider at Home

Cider happens! Have you ever left a jug of fresh-pressed apple juice in the back of the fridge for a few weeks? Did you see that jug expand?  That juice was fermenting to (hard) cider! Learn how you can do that in a controlled sense and have your own fermented cider to enjoy at home. The Cider Farm’s award-winning Cidermaker, Jason Cassidy, who still ferments at home, will demonstrate the equipment you need, the yeast strains, and the science involved so you can have fun fermenting at home.  He has built his own milling and pressing equipment, which he will discuss as well.

One cider pour is included at the end of the class, and attendees also receive a 10% discount on any cider they wish to take home.

NEW! Pre-order a bushel of our organic, true cider apples to get your cider-making adventure started!  Each bushel yields ~3 gallons of juice.  Please contact us for pressing options.
