new to brewing iv got magnum cider in fermenting bucket.1s ready can i mix sugre in a keg then put in demijohns or will they explode?wots best way for secondery fermention? and bottleing what do i do first?
Hi Jay88. During secondary fermentation alot of pressure can build up so you'll have to check your demijohns can handle pressure and that you have suitable caps/bungs that wont blow of when carbonating. 2 litre pop bottles should do the job ok but make sure you dont over prime them (add to much sugar) or they will blow up. We sell some cheap 1 litre bottles you might be interested in, heres a link to them:
Most cider kits clear quickly compared to beer kits. All the cider kits i've done before have been ready in a couple of weeks. Hope this helps, let us know how you get on. If you have anymore questions I'll be glad to help.
