Cider Chat

Adam Levy's moniker is "The Alcohol Professor ". In this chat we are talking with this self professed beer freak about getting cider makers to enter their ciders into two competition that he runs in New York City and Berlin, Germany. Adam Levy Adam started the International Spirits Competition in 2008 followed by the International Wine Competition and then the International Beer Competition which is now in its 7th year. February 11, 2018, the New York International Beer Competition's 7th judging will be takes place in NYC. Beside beer, this competition also judges ciders and meads. The cider categories used in the competition come from the United States Association of Cider Makers which just this year (2017) introduced their 10 categories for cider styles. International ciders entering the competition will be judged based upon their country's styles. What makes this competition unique is the Judges! Instead of having Makers, Adam has Trade Buyers judge the cider based upon category and price point. Adam says, "Most people buy based on price. These people are the buyers and distributors some who own craft beer bars and are ordering at restaurants." How does entering this competition benefit makers and cider? -First off, who doesn't love winning a medal! -More importantly, Adams says that if he gets enough entries he is open to having a stand alone cider competition!!! And best yet, he is getting very close to the number of cider needed to make it so. We also discuss: How the Gold, Silver, Bronze and regional awards are determined Use of digital images from the awards Options available for showcasing their awards, such as promoting a win on a cider label. The Deadline to send cider to the February 11, 2018 competition is February 4th. Going to CiderCon? Bring your cider to Adam who will be at the vendor area at CiderCon with a table and save money on shipping! You can also enter your cider in the Berlin International Competition and save money on international shipping charges. Dates to note for upcoming competitions.

Sign up for a trip of a lifetime and come along with Ria, the host of Cider Chat and fellow cider travels. This week's chat was recorded during Tom's presentation at CiderDays 2017. Making Perry tips from Tom No surprise that Tom says you are reliant upon the fruit Don't work with culinary pears or apples All about minimum intervention Ferments with wild yeast - does not pitch yeast. Doesn't use sulfite prior to fermentation No yeast nutrient Use a little bit of SO2 - about 80 ppm Tom's favorite Pear varieties for making Perry, hopefully from old trees Moorcroft Thorn Blakeney Red Hendre Huffcap Winnal's Longdon More pears mentions in this chat: Coppy Rock Gin Oldfield Christmas Pear Cypress Pear Ferret Custard Cows slip Dead Boy Go to this UK link to find out more about Perry Pears The Challenge of Perry Pears: They all ripen at different times They don't come off the tree They engage in bletting If the pear is brown in side is it bad or rotten - no it is not - it is fermenting. Blet - means overripe pear...it is fermenting Rot - is decomposing. And Tom does use pears that are bletting from the inside out - "It is how far you will let it go. (blet). Tom washes the pears beforehand and referenced Mike Beck and how he uses saline solution to wash the pears in because pears sink, unlike apples that float. Maceration - leaving the pears to break down the sugars before you press them Tom does at least 24 hours to 48 hours for a pressing.

His grandparent tended apples on one side of the lane and his parents planted apples on the other side of the lane on their honeymoon. This new commercial maker was a 2014 Gold Medal winner at Franklin County CiderDays competition. His products are just out, so stay tuned! One listen to this chat might make you agree that this guy is a virtual walking encyclopedia on cidermaking. Chadd explains that he uses a partial wild ferment in every cider. Using up to .4 parts per million (ppm) of sulfite, which he says will inhibit most lactic acid bacteria and brettanomyces - but this amount of sulfite won't kill off all the wild saccharomyces yeasts. They let it get up to about 1% alcohol before introducing their own yeast at Cider Cellars. All of Cider Hill Cellars products are named after a season like Spring Cider or Summer Cider and Frost Cider ( an ice cider) Patrons of Cider Chat will recieve a special additional audio file on Chadd speaking on how to stop fermentation of Ice Cider and future tips for this special Apple drink!
