Default Re: Mac's Apple Pie Shine

Hey Everyone! Forum newbie here.... I found this while researching my next batch and had to get into the conversation.

Back a few pages I saw the Simply Apple juice and started Googling. This seems to get awesome reviews and I'm game to try it... Soooooo, could I just use this instead of the juice/cider combo? Thoughts?

Also, where I can't find 190 proof Everclear I just found 190 proof Golden Grain made by the same company.... I usually add 9 ounces of booze (151 Everclear) to a quart jar and then top off to the line with the 'base'.

So Mac, on top of that 9 ounces of what will now be 190 Golden Grain you add almost a ounce per quart of the whipped cream vodka? Never tried that before.... Might give it a shot.

Thanks for all the ideas!

Made some with my buddy last night.. Didn't use your recipe. Went off of his. Matter of fact, I have never looked in this thread till now.

Here is out finished product.


I am going to make my own, very soon and use your recipe.. Compare the two.. From reading, MACS seems way better!

Not my recipe.. I take no credit at all.. and after reading yours, this one is weak.

My buddy made a 6 gallon batch, 3 gallon apple juice, 3 gallons apple cider and 3 5ths of grain alcohol. 3 cups of white and brown sugar and at least 10 sticks.

I will be making yours prolly next week... and surely sticking with yours.. for here on out.

Garry...has to be the cider you choose. I use a local seasonal cider that is "murky"...not as clear as the Tree Top. That's gotta be it.
