Re: Apple pie
Ok..I stand by my last post above..after reading numerous recipes, and watching youtube vids, it's all down to what taste you want to finish up with.
My first batch I used cloudy apple, brown sugar, and 3 very small cinnamon sticks. After making it up to around 18% (for my first try) we both tried it..
Second try I used clear apple, brown sugar, neutral, and only 2 small cinnamon sticks. With an hydro I adjusted the %
Both recipes came to the boil then down to a simmer for 30mins, what they'll turn out like after sitting about for a week or two who knows???
It seems to be, as can be expected..down to ones taste buds....so after my very small trial all I can suggest is, if you've never made apple pie shine..have a go and try it...

It just "fits".

Re: Apple pie
This is primarily directed at those individuals who have joined this site within the last couple of years, but might have missed “Apple Pie“. Seeing as how it is that time of the year, you might consider adding Apple Pie to your Christmas offering. My recipe is posted here along with a few other variations.
Apple Pie does not need to be limited to the winter season. Year in and year out it remains my biggest seller ~ and I live in the tropics. There is no winter here.
Give it a shot if you have not already done so.

Re: Apple pie
What a great find and possibly the best way to use up the windfall from my two apple trees. I'm gonna give the Pie a try! Cheers RJ!!

Re: Apple pie
As homely as Mom's apple pie, with a kick.
In liquid form.
It has to be tried.
My guests love it, in all it's various forms.
