Heh,'
That all sounds good. I have made ales and meads, and have
just talked with others about cider, but I would say it would
take about 3 weeks for the fermentation to finish, then bottle it and seal it for about 3 to 4 weeks. It should be drinkable, and will just get better with
age. Drew

I started mine today.. :)
Don't laugh..
Sun tea jar, wine bottle's cork, aquarium tubing, and a mason jar... :)
The pulp from apples and blueberries, only 1.5 cups sugar as I don't want it to be too alcoholic, but I think the sweet will balance the tart of the berries..
Anyway, Ron drilled a hole in the cork, I inserted the tubing and set up the jar to vent into a mason jar filled with water. We'll see how it turns out. I'm not quite sure how long I have to wait to have a drinkable cider, though. Any further advice on how long and what to do next after the wait is over and the bubbling stops?
