They explore in-depth the different phases of fermentation and the entire spectrum of complex flavor and style possibilities, with cider recipes ranging from cornelian cherry to ginger, and styles including New England, Spanish, and late-season ciders.For those invested in making use of every part of the apple, there’s even a recipe for vinegar made from the skins and cores leftover after pressing.
