Cidermaking Tips used by Nathan

White Labs - 720 Sweet Mead Yeast - because it wouldn't ferment dry
He monitors his ciders with a temperature controlled chamber
Tilt Hydrometer that floats in the fermenter.
- You can look at your carboy and can see the current specific gravity

Nathan was looking for an ice cider that had clean acidity
