Find out how to make hard cider from apples, and what the pressing process entails. From bushel to bottle – get the inside scoop on how you can turn delicious apples into even more delicious cider. Learn why what you get out of the fermentation process changes based on the season, and how brewers deal with the time sensitive nature of cider.
