That's what I was thinking also...so I am just planning on doing 2 separate batches.

B was thinking along that same line of getting a bigger pot but my burner would tend to make a single hot spot in the middle of the pot; and with all that sugar in the mix...probably burn. Much rather make up 2 separate batches.


Thanks Y'all !

Isn't an issue if you stir it ocasionally. Last three or four batches I have made have been double batches. Only real issue with making a double batch in one pot is that it takes forever to bring to a boil...like 75 minutes.

I'm hypoglycemic and followed this recipe almost all the way. All I did was substitute Diet AJ and Diet Cider for the real things and used Splenda. I also threw a few pinches of Apple Pie Spice in it to recover what was probably lost by using diet drinks.

Mac, the sugar free (probably about 5g of sugar per serving actually) has been a hit this football season and has even travelled to my gf's family reunion in NY and applauded. No one complains about the sugar free version.

It does taste much better with a couple weeks worth of rest.

Party on!

I would go with the Madagascar Vanilla beans.

Glad everyone enjoyed it James. Nothing better than some liquid apple pie.

I plan on getting the supplies and making up a batch soon.

With the high % of alcohol I doubt there would be any spoilage if un-refrigarated. Gonna check out my theory by vacume packing a jar and seeing what it is like in 6 months....course I will keep it cool.

fall is upon us... and that means good apple cider again, finally I can make up a GOOD batch of the stuff... the last two were "eh" due to poor quality cider
