The Real Cider and Perry Page
This is 'Real' Cider and Perry in the same way as the 'Campaign for Real Ale'
is 'Real' Ale. i.e. traditional styles, traditionally brewed. This page has
information on maling traditional Cider and Perry. It has lists of appropriate
apples and pears and their characteristics. There are also lists of Cider and
Perry producers (in the UK). There are also recipes, plans for cider presses
and mills and a list of books on the subject. Unfortunately, the information
on how to sell your homebrewed cider and perry is valid only in the UK.
The Wittenham Hill Cider Portal
This portal takes you to a whole load of information about
small-scale cider making. Here you can learn how to grow cider
apples, how to process them into cider juice, how to ferment it
into hard cider, and how to bottle and store the cider. Later, you can
learn how to tweak the process to make it just what you want - dry or
sweet, fizzy or flat. There's sections on unfermented apple juice and on
cider vinegar too. There's even a bit of history - these fellows are
from the17th century!
