Hi,
I'm fairly new to homebrew but I've succeeded nicely in doing quite a few ale and cider kits. I'm getting a little more confident and have just tried to increase the alcohol content of a raspberry and mango cider kit. I added 230g of brewing sugar to a 23 litre kit (10g per litre). It seems to have worked well and raised it from 4.8% to 5.8%. Currently it is primed with carbonation drops and bottled. I would just like to know if perhaps I should have added extra yeast with the extra sugar? I am wondering if by NOT adding extra yeast have I adversely affected the priming, maturing or quality of the cider? Any tips or advice for this novice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
