The cider-making day will start at Brogdale Farm with a history of cider-making in Kent. We will also cover the health and safety aspects of making cider. This is a great time for a bit of Q&A and to get your queries answered in the cider-making discussion.
You will then spend the rest of the morning getting 'hands-on' with cider making. Heading out into the Brogdale orchards to gather apples. Learning about the best fruit to use and why along the way. Get hands-on by hand scratting and pressing your apples into juice ready to make into cider. Learn valuable skills from the expert teacher on what to do next. Discover all you need to know about fermenting your freshly pressed apple juice at home and creating the perfect cider.
Finish off the day with ready-to-make-your-own cider at home. You will leave the day with up to 10 litres of your freshly pressed apple juice ready to ferment at home. With full instructions and guidance on the fermenting process. This course promises to be a fun day out as well as a great learning experience, starting you on your path to successful cider-making at home.
