This is more than ready for bottling now; the sample from the trial jar is clear (if a little sour) and comes in at 1.000 exactly, making for 6.04% ABV though it doesn’t taste half as strong.
I’m tempted to bottle this right now with 10 ml of sweetener, but then again I was very impressed with the taste of Mango Jack’s Dry Hopped Cider when I bottled that a while ago, and wouldn’t mind having a go at something like that myself. Maybe dry hop for a couple of days before bottling? Something to think about…
