Hard Apple Cider siphoning into barrels + Q & A | Your Top Questions Answered | JR’S Life<br /><br />Hey Everyone and welcome/welcome back to the JR’S Life channel!<br /><br />In today’s episode I’m continuing where I left off in the last cider making vlog (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnLDF-DOgug" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnLDF-DOgug</a>) and siphoning fresh apple juice into whiskey and wine barrels to start the fermentation process. It’s super easy. Then I sit down with you guys, have a couple glasses of cider and answer the top questions I get asked about the cider making process and how the cider itself tastes. I love the stuff!<br /><br />If I missed anything, feel free to ask me in the comments.<br /><br />Cheers!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />TIMESTAMPS:<br /><br />01:00 Installing the spout for the barrel<br /><br />03:44 Setting up the siphoning hose<br /><br />07:28 Installing the bung and spigot<br /><br />08:27 Pouring a cup of last season's cider from the barrel - color and clarity<br /><br />12:03 How to start the siphoning process<br /><br />14:17 Q and A<br /><br />14:43 Do I keep it in the barrel or bottle it all?<br /><br />16:08 Where do I get fresh pressed apple juice?<br /><br />16:36 Is it pasteurized or unpasteurized?<br /><br />17:02 Do you notice a difference in flavour between the wine and whiskey barrels?<br /><br />17:51 What other fruits can be mixed with the apples?<br /><br />18:55 How do you care for / clean the barrel?<br /><br />20:10 What is the difference between cider and hard cider?<br /><br />20:25 What does it taste like?
