Description

Our Hard Cider Kit makes brewing as easy as (apple) pie (and tastes like it too!) Apples, yeast and honey are all you need to make hard apple cider. The kit includes all the essential equipment for 3 batches of harvest bubbly. You can even bypass the apple juicing yourself for pre-pressed cider from your favorite farmers’ market. Simply add a few packets of yeast to your fresh squeezed apples (or pre-pressed cider) and let science work its magic. After two weeks add three tablespoons of honey to your fermented juice to give the cider the extra dose of sugar it needs to carbonate. A couple weeks later and you’ll be sipping delightfully fizzy Hard Cider by the fire.

    • This was a little off fun
This is a great inexpensive kit for anybody who's looking to make their own hard cider it comes with pretty much everything you need for up to three badges. All you need is the cider/ apple juice. And it's only up to three batches because of the amount of yeast and sanitizer but really those are cheap to replace and you can use it countless times. Their website has a ton of information and easy to follow instructions. As well as many other beer making kits ... show more

Boyfriend loved this gift. A little difficult to get it right the first time, but we had fun doing it together and are planning to try again this year.

    • Great kit, Okay instructions.
Review Image by Josh Josh
Great kit, average instructions. This kit has everything you need and a link to the instructions you need to make whatever you want. That said, ignore their directions on the website for the yeast, and follow the instructions on the Top Star yeast packet on activating the yeast. Additionally, the packet of yeast is usuable for up to 5 gallon of whatever your poison is, so don't need to pitch all of it, unless you happen to get something with a low amount of potassium sorbate (ideally, you want no potassium sorbate, but with enough yeast you can get away with it). I assume they tell you to pitch all the yeast just so that you're guaranteed a fermentation, and therefore guaranteed to have a good first experience. ... show more

Don't pay attention to the reviews about the instructions. They're right there on the website. It took me 30 seconds to find and print. What is the big deal?? If it keeps the cost down so be it. This kit has everything to do 3 batches of cider except for the juice. I got a gallon at the local orchard and was ready to go. I have my first in process now and it has went perfect. This is the perfect gift also. Boxed and ready to wrap. Don't hesitate, order this! ... show more

    • Easy and delicious
This kit gives you enough yeast to make 2 growler sizes ( buying 1 gallon of normal apple juice/cider for less than $5 at grocery store) 3 times. That is a lot cheaper than buying that much regular hard cider from a liquor/grocery store so it's worth a try. Made my first batch was made using a store bought apple cider per directions on website. Easy and delicious. It is some work but after doing 3 consecutive batches each one a week apart, we are drinking hard cider every week for over half the price of a 6 pack of (insert brand name here) alcoholic cider. Active yeast refills bought here on Amazon are cheap along with a bottle of the "Star San Sanitizer" (liquid version of what comes in kit). (side note-I found swing top growler bottles from a discount store to use in bottling for $3 each.) ... show more

    • Cool kit but
There are no instructions included. You have to follow the very vague instructions on the box or go to their website and read them on your phone or computer. Giving 3 starts due to this. It would be so much easier to have paper instructions.

    • Highly recommend for beginners
Love this product. It offers a reliable and easy way to enter the world of brewing. My brother first got on and loved it. After having some of his cider I had to buy my wife and I one. We've had a blast making cider. The instructions are clear, it comes with almost everything you need. All you need is apple juice, bottles, caps, and a capper and this becomes the perfect gift. ... show more

    • OK for beginners
The price was what caught my eye. I was really interested in home brewing and didn’t want to invest a ton before I started. It came with enough supplies to make 3 batches and I’m currently on batch #2! My only issue was the instructions, the instructions are on their website and they are not very clear. I spent a lot of time on Google and Reddit to verify info and see if I was missing anything. I will also add that the tubing and cane to siphon the cider from one container to the next is very tricky and am looking into a different tool for my next batch. Overall I still think it’s a great product, could just use a little tweaking. ... show more
