Two weeks ago, I started a hard cider using locally grown apples.
It’s been happily bubbling away in the dining room these past two weeks. It was time, yesterday, to rack it into a smaller carboy.

Not the color I had expected, but it sure smells good! #brewing #HardCider pic.twitter.com/eYee5wgT84

Now it’s all moved. Hopefully, some of the cloudiness will settle out. If not, that’s fine. As soon as I’m certain it’s finished fermenting, I’ll bottle it.
Racked and ready. In a couple of weeks, we’ll bottle! #brewing #HardCider pic.twitter.com/3gZZl1ED2X
