Bottled. Yeilded 11, 22oz, 10 16oz bottles.
Added 5Oz Priming Sugar with 8 Oz water.
Final Hydrometer Reading:1.0. ~9%ABV.
Flavor:
Dry & Tangy without being bitter.
Able to taste alcohol at finish.
I'm pretty happy with this first cider. I guess I'm happy with anything that doesn't taste like the 5 brand's I've had for the past 2.75 years. Depending on how GF Beer 2 Goes, I may add more apricot/fruit to the next one.
Not able to taste cinnamon that was added.
Side Note:
Tap water had strong Cholrine Smell. Definitely going to buy my own Water filter for brewing.
MUST: make device for cleaning/sanitizing bottles faster.

Cider/GF Beer 2
Cider 1
Cider fermentation is finally winding down. Nice amber color, cloudy though. Will bottle Friday/Saturday. Only took ~18 days for it to settle down. This should be pretty strong.
GF Beer 2
Violent fermentation for first 3 days. Smell in the closet where the fermenter's reside was funky... makes me wonder if this will be my first train wreck. Starting to settle down. This beer will definitely go into a secondary for atleast a week.
