INTRODUCTION to CIDER Dan Daugherty Co-Founder & Cidermaker, St IN-CIDER SERIES™: INTRODUCTION TO CIDER Dan Daugherty co-founder & cidermaker, St. Vrain Cidery Overview ■ Introductions ■ Topics For This Session: 1. What is Cider? • A Brief History of Apples and Cider 2. Cidermaking Approaches • Cider Styles • Tastings (Interspersed) 3. Upcoming Sessions WHAT IS CIDER? The Short Answer: Fermented Apple Juice Cider Terms You May Have Heard: The Basics ■ “Cider” Is (for purposes of this presentation): ■ The fermented juice of apples and/or pears – Fermented pears can be either “cider” or “perry” – “Cider” can also include juice made from concentrate – Additional ingredients may be included (co-fermented or added later) ■ An often confusing term in the U.S. ■ “Hard Cider” is: ■ A U.S. term for fermented cider – A product of Prohibition and U.S. tax laws – Not a term you hear much outside of the U.S. when referencing fermented apple juice (it’s generally called “cider”) A Growing Market ■ At a 15% annual growth rate, cider will be equivalent to 2% of the beer market in 2020 (from a Cidercon 2016 presentation) ■ About 30 million cases $1 billion in cider sales in 2015 (source) ■ Cider is still very small relative to the beer market, but growing fast… Craft Beer Volume (source: Brewers Association) ■ Cider 2015: – $1 billion – 30 million cases (approx. 70 million gallons) The Basic Process ■ Basic Cidermaking Process: 1. Grow apples 2. Harvest apples 3. Grind apples 4. Press apples into juice 5. Ferment juice (naturally or with cultivated yeast) 6. Maturation – barrels, tanks, totes, etc 7. Packaging – bottles, cans, kegs 8. Serving -- bottles, cans, draft The Basic Process A (VERY) BRIEF HISTORY OF APPLES AND CIDER To Your Glass Via The Silk Road Apple Overview Malus Pumila / Malus Domestica: The Domesticated Apple ■ Member of Rosaceae family – Descended from Malus Sieversii, (Kazakhstan origin) ■ Transported west on the Silk Road ■ Requires a temperate climate (won’t fruit without enough cold winter days) ■ Extremely variable and diverse by nature but less so by human cultivation – 1,000’s of varieties, but the industry is dominated by a few dozen – Doesn’t grow true to seed – Clonally/vegetatively propagated ■ Extremely well-integrated into Western culture, with innumerable historical, folk, biblical, and mythological references The Apple – A Brief History (from Cider: Hard And Sweet, by Ben Watson) ■ M. Domestica (M. Pumila) originated from M. Sieversii ■ M. Domestica is relatively recent in its introduction to the west ■ Wild crab apples preceeded it. – M. Sylvestris – European Crab – M. Orientalis – Caucasus region – North American crabs ■ 8000 - 3500 B.C.E. apples depicted in Paleolithic cave paintings ■ 6500 B.C.E. remains of apples in human settlements The Apple – A Brief History ■ Romans brought orcharding techniques and introduced apple varieties to what is now Western Europe ■ Northern Spain (Asturius and The Basque) likely has the oldest European apple growing tradition ■ 1600’s started M. Domestica came to America with European colonists – By various chance, seedlings in America became today’s heirloom varieties ■ 1775, one out of 10 farms in New England operated a cider mill The Apple – A Brief History ■ Most seedlings are virtually inedibly tart and/or tannic, but good for cider – 1919 Prohibition - Many farmers ripped out their cider tree orchards ■ Poor quality, adulterated cider also hastened cider’s decline – 1899 - 55 million gallons – 1919 - 13 million gallons (when Prohibition was enacted) The Apple – A Brief History ■ First written reference: – 55 B.C.E., Romans invaded what is now Britain and noticed native Celts fermenting native crab apples (a different species that is wider-spread than M. Pumila) ■ 1371 Normandy - Cider had caught up with wine in sales ■ 17th century, Golden Age Of Apples in England – Significant orchard plantings in Western and Southern England and great interest in cider varieties The Apple – A Brief History ■ 1767 Massachusetts – One report stated that the per capita average of cider consumption in Massachusetts was 1.14 barrels per person per year (35 gallons) ■ Present Day U.S. – 20 gal of beer per person per year The U.S. Apple Industry ■ U.S. Apple Industry Stats (from the U.S. Apple Association): – 7,500 major producers growing 240 million bushels – $4 billion annual crop – Top 15 varieties account for 90% of production • Top Varieties: Red Delicious, Gala, Granny Smith, Fuji, Golden Delicious, Honeycrisp, McIntosh, Rome, Cripps Pink/Pink Lady®, Empire • Very few cider-specific apples are available commercially in the U.S. – Primarily grown in intensive plantings – dwarf trees close together Complicating Factors 1. U.S. Excise Tax Law – Cider is a wine under U.S. tax law ■ More complex than beer (ABV, carbonation limits) • Under 7% ABV, cider has a special excise tax (lower) • At or Above 7% ABV, taxed as table wine (about 4x) • Above certain CO2 limits, cider is considered champagne (3x as much as table wine) Wine Excise and Tax Rates (source: Tax And Trade Bureau) VS. Beer Tax Rates ($.22/gal if you’re under 60k barrels, regardless of CO2 or ABV) Complicating Factors 2. Historical – Refrigeration ■ All juice naturally fermented itself before refrigeration (or pasteurization), as yeast is naturally present on the fruit – 1st refrigerated rail car patent in the U.S. was in 1867 – Prohibition ■ Resulted in the ‘re-branding’ of apple juice (‘sweet cider’) as ‘cider’ ■ Resulted in the loss of cider orchards in the U.S. CIDERMAKING APPROACHES The Old, The New, And The Odd Apple Contents ■ An apple contains: – 80% water (varies with irrigation practices and weather conditions) – 10% carbohydrate • Sugars (primarily simple sugar fructose, with some glucose) • Fiber/cellulose – 4% vitamins/minerals – 6% of: • Organic acids (primarily malic acid) • Pectin • Polyphenols – flavonoids and, to a varying degree, tannins • Very small amounts of proteins Cider Flavors And Aromas ■ Balance between elements is often a priority ■ Common flavor elements: 1. Tartness – derived from the acidity of the apples and other ingredients (e.g., tart cherry, berries) 2. Sweetness – residual or added sugar post-fermentation 3. Tannin-derived – astringency & bitterness • Astringency - Mouthfeel perception of ‘dryness’ (e.g., undiluted black tea) • Bitterness - From tannins in the fruit, from storage in oak, or from added ingredients (e.g., blueberry, black currant, powdered tannin) 4. Aromatics – often fruity or floral; sometimes earthy; others possible Apples Used In Cidermaking ■ In reality, can be any apple ■ Ideally, includes apples not commonly grown on a large scale ■ Ideally, a blend of: – Sharps (high acid, low tannin) –e.g., Granny Smith, Newtown Pippin – Sweets (low acid, low tannin) – e.g., most dessert varieties – Bittersweets (high tannin, low acid) –rare in the U.S. – Bittersharps (high tannin, high acid) –rare in the U.S. ■ Sugar levels vary within these categories i.e., a ‘sharp’ can have high sugar content Cider Apple Categories (Source: Andrew Lea) Category % Acid (TA) % Tannin Sharp >0.45 % <0.2 % Bittersharp >0.45 % >0.2 % Bittersweet <0.45 % >0.2 % Sweet <0.45 % <0.2 % Example Blend Ratio (source: Cider: Making, Using, & Enjoying Sweet & Hard Cider) Juice Type Percent of Juice Total Astringent [tannic] 5 - 20% Neutral Base 30 - 60% Tart 10 - 20% Aromatic 10 - 20% Cider Apple Examples (source: ciderschool (Dan’s site); various) Variety Type Acidity Sugar Content Tannin Notes Kingston English high medium high Slightly smoky Black Bittersharp (5.8 g/L) (SG 1.061) (1.9 g/L) and brandy-like Bramley's English high low low Very tart Seedling Cooking (>10 g/L) (SG 1.040) (<.5 g/L) Aromatic American high medium Cortland low (McIntosh Heirloom (7.3 g/L) (SG 1.059) variant) Porter's English very high high Apples often fuse medium Perfection Bittersharp (15 g/L) (SG 1.060) together Somerset English Low Medium high Striped Redstreak Bittersweet (1.9 g/L) (SG 1.060) (3.5 g/L) appearance Cidermaking Variations ■ Regional differences can be very large – Process, ingredients, and serving approaches ■ We’ll focus on the U.S. today ■ Using Jeff Alworth’s Three Schools Of American Cider in Cider Made Simple: 1. The Traditionalists 2. The Modernists 3. The Experimentalists 1. Traditionalists ■ Orchard-focused – ‘Great Wine Is Made In The Vineyard’ – Blending for balance • Not highly specific / variety-by-variety ■ Minimal intervention with the fermentation – Often wild-fermented with the native yeast on the fruit – Few or no additives – Products often resemble English and/or French traditional styles ■ Examples: – EZ Orchards (Salem, OR) 2. Modernists ■ Process-oriented – Control fermentation conditions – Use cultivated yeast – Use SO2 ■ Fruit-centric flavor profiles – Neutral, white wine yeasts – Targeted blends of specific apples – Produces more modern and ‘designed’ flavor-wise vs. a traditional cider ■ Examples: – Farnum Hill (Lebanon, NH) 3. Experimentalists ■ Diverse products with diverse products to match – Flavor is the goal – Tradition isn’t necessarily ignored but isn’t the priority ■ Frequent use of non-traditional ingredients – Spices, hops, tropical fruits, spirit barrel aging ■ Examples: – Reverend Nat’s Hard Cider (Portland, OR) CIDER STYLES Diverse Approaches To A Diverse Fruit Dimensions Of Variance ■ Cider can vary substantially along many lines, such as: 1. Acidity / tartness 2. Sweetness (zero residual sugars quite sweet) 3. Alcohol content (between 5-8% with typical apples) 4. Non-apple ingredients 5. Storage / maturation (barrels, steel, other

He was a familiar figure in Fort Wayne in the I830's and died near the city in 1845. The following biographical sketch by W. D. Haley was originally published in HARPER'S NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE, volume XLIII, November, 1871. That article is the nucleus of fact and legend current in 1871, twenty-six years after Johnny's death; it is the chief source of subsequent articles and sketches. The Boards and the Staff of the Public Library of Fort Wayne and Allen County reprint the article with the assurance that it will be interesting and informative to Library patrons. The "Far West" is rapidly becoming only a traditional designation; railroads have destroyed the romance of frontier life or have surrounded it with so many appliances of civi- lization that the pioneer character is rapidly becoming myth- ical.

  • BE a MODERN-DAY JOHNNY APPLESEED Plant a Piece of American History on National Arbor Day with Johnny Appleseed Tree
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MEDIA CONTACT: Razonia McClellan Razonia McClellan Public Relations Cell: 432.352.7477 Email: [email protected] BE A MODERN-DAY JOHNNY APPLESEED Plant a Piece of American History on National Arbor Day with Johnny Appleseed Tree JACKSONVILLE, FL (February 11, 2021) — Home gardeners and orchardists across the country have an opportunity to grow a piece of early American history with the Johnny Appleseed Authentic™ Algeo apple tree. Just in time for National Arbor Day (April 30) or National Earth Day (April 22), genetically identical copies of the last surviving tree planted by John Chapman, the real-life inspiration behind the Johnny Appleseed legend, are available for consumer purchase for the first time at https://shopjohnnyappleseed.com/. Chapman famously planted apple trees throughout the American frontier, but his orchards were largely destroyed by old age, weather and Prohibition-era federal agents looking to end the practice of cider-making. Defying the odds, the Algeo tree had survived since the mid-1800s thanks to a family of farmers in rural Ashland County, Ohio. Independently authenticated by the Johnny Appleseed museum at Urbana University and the Ohio Historical Society, the tree’s rich history lives on in the form of bud-grafted, genetically identical saplings. “We have always considered ourselves guardians of the tree,” said Kate Harvey Algeo-Wilkins, a descendant of the family which preserved the tree and in whose honor its apple is named. “We protect it and take care of it and do the maintenance. We’re very excited to share this because John Chapman shared it with us and we are happy to pass it on.” The tree was sampled and grafted by Jeff Meyer, founder of Johnny Appleseed Authentic, who learned of its existence in the mid-1990s while working for the 501(c)(3) nonprofit American Forests.

  • Make and Enjoy Award Winning Sparkling Ciders
    Make And Enjoy Award Winning Sparkling Ciders Presented by Martin Nygard and Bill Thornton At AWO Festival 2007 – Kitchener, June 9 2007 Making good quality apple cider is relatively easy and enjoying it is even easier. A number of AWO cider makers have had great success – and so can you!! AWO has only sent 2 ciders in each of the past two years to the Canadian championships. All four (by 4 different cider makers) were the only entries to be awarded medals (all silver or gold). Their techniques are quite similar and we will share these methods with you today. Our topic will focus on making ciders that meet the AWO class descriptions for ‘SPARKLING CIDER”, which include the following points: 1. apple based sparkling beverage between 5% and 8% alcohol (evidence of alcohol in nose or taste is a fault). 2. colour ranges from neutral to golden but not brown. 3. sparkle controlled and last at least 20 minutes with preference for fine bubbles. 4. may be presented on priming yeast but preference is for sparged bottles. (artificial carbonation is quite acceptable and commonly used) 5. safety requires glass beer bottles with crown cap, or plastic bottles with screw cap, or tins. (also accepted are champagne style bottles with wired down plastic stopper) 6. balance of sugar, acid and taste as expected in champagne or sparkling wine with no oxidation or harshness that is often found in apples. Sweetness optional but must be in balance with the preferred taste having distinct apple character. Some comments on these criteria: - it is allowable (often with positive effect) to add other fruit to add flavour and colour to the cider as long as the product is “apple based” and retains some “distinct apple character”.
