  • Private Cuvée Keg Guide
    NEW! PRIVATE CUVÉ E KEG GUIDE Zardetto is thrilled to announce a brand new Private Cuvée keg oering to our line-up of unparalleled sparkling wines! Enjoy this true-to-style Veneto Frizzante, now on-tap for eortless pouring, an extended shelf-life, and consistently crisp bubbles. Before filling each keg, clean and sanitize all parts. Connect product tube to product filling connection (5)- ensure secure connection. Purge product through tube to ensure no air is left in the tube using product filling valve (6). If additional back-pressure is required (this will reduce foam build-up during filling) connect suitable gas supply to back-pressure top-up connection (1). Note: for Polykegs® without liner this should be CO2 or Nitrogen (max. 3.5 bar). Adjust back-pressure regulator (4) to maximum setting. Place Polykeg® to be filled on a stable level surface. Fit coupling head to Polykeg® valve. Note: spray a suitable sanitizer solution onto both parts before connection. Close coupler handle (7). Note: Back-pressure gauge (3) will now display the internal Polykeg® pressure. If additional back-pressure is required. Carefully open back pressure top up valve (2) until required pressure is achieved and close the valve. Note: It is vital to have the correct back-pressure when filling Polykegs® fitted with a liner. Carefully open product filling valve (6) - the Polykeg® will now start to fill. Note: It may be necessary to adjust the filling rate using this valve. As the Polykeg® fills, the back- pressure will rise, carefully adjust the backpressure regulator to maintain the desired back-pressure.

  • How to Make Hard Cider
    HOW TO MAKE HARD CIDER INSTRUCTIONS Make a Starter The day before you brew your cider, make a starter. To make a starter, open a h a lf- ga llon bottle of room -temperature apple juice and pour out a few ounces. Pour the contents of one yeast packet into the bottle, reseal it and shake for a few seconds. Within five or six hours, you should see a bit of bubbling within the bottle. Once you do, release the pressure within the bottle, reseal it and put it in the refrigerator overn igh t. Get it out a couple of hours before you sta rt the next morning. Fermentation Stage (15 da ys ) 1. Sa n itize all equipment, using Professional Brewer’s Wash 2. Pou r the starter with yeast into the sanitized fermentation bucket and a dd th e remaining cider (~ 5 gallons). Stir the mixture with spoon to aerate 3. For a 6 gallon batch, add 3 tsp yeast n u trien ts (½ tsp per gallon) and 1½ tsp pectic en zym e (¼ tsp per gallon). 4. Seal the lid and affix the airlock & fill airlock w/ water 5. Place the bucket in a room or closet where the temperature is 65 to 75 degrees Let it Ferment. Within a day or two you should see the airlock start to bubble. Th is bubbling should subside (interval between bubbles exceeds 2 minutes) within two weeks, signifying an end to the primary fermentation. It is now time to transfer (known as rack or racking) the cider to a secondary fermentation vessel, typically a 5 gallon glass carboy where it will sit for 3 -4 weeks to clarify & age.

Filling Your Keg To begin with we will make some assumptions:- That you have had a beer fermenting and it has been left some extra time to clear. If you have the cold space in a fridge, you may have let the fermenter clear there. It is important to note that if you do an SG test that you clean the tap immediately, as bacteria will build up very quickly on beer droplets that are left in the tap. That you have a keg that has been properly cleaned with YOUNGA`S FERMENTER KEG AND LINE CLEANER or a suitable alternative. That you have cleaned the transfer tube. This tube is usually a metre long and 12m.m. in diameter and is used to transfer beer from fermenter to keg. That you have removed the airlock. If you can tick all these boxes, proceed with the following: 1. Clean your hands 2. Clean the tap 3. Open the tap and let the beer run into a container until your beer runs clear. This should be no more than half a litre. 4. Put the transfer tube on the tap and down into the open keg with the tube deep in the keg, usually on the bottom.

SUMMARY OF SALES AND USE TAXES ON CONTAINERS, PALLETS AND OTHER PACKAGING AND SHIPPING MATERIALS (INCLUDING REUSABLE PALLETS AND CONTAINERS) A. Introduction Most states in the United States impose a sales tax on sales of tangible personal property to a final user or consumer of the property. The transaction is referred to by various terms, such as “retail sale” or “sale at retail,” and in most jurisdictions, it includes leases, rentals and other transfers of custody or possession in exchange for valuable consideration. Most state statutes contain a provision that declares a presumption that such transactions involving the sale, lease or rental of tangible personal property are taxable.
