Hi,
I would like to post the following question to the cider digest:
I've noticed all of my ciders that have been stored over two years do not
age well; they have all become very sharp and off balance with respect to
body and acidity, compared to when they were bottled. I would expect the
aging process to make a smoother drink, like what I've experienced with
wines. All of my past attempts seem to behave this way, I have about four
or five examples, and it really had me wondering what may be going on.
I am wondering if others have experienced this also, or not, and if this
is a feature of cider, if anyone has an explanation.
Thanks

In an article on yeast selection, Greg Appleyard writes about a series of
tests on various yeast strains. I'm curious about one he calls "george" a
commercial cider yeast donated by friends for the test. Anyone know what
strain that is?

Can I freeze cider, to be fermented at later date?
