Making Apple Cider Vinegar at home is useful for making salad dressing or adding flavor to your cooking. It can also be used for pickling as long as the pickled product is kept in the refrigerator.
Ingredients ( Make 300 ml )
- 900 g Apple
- 120 g Raw Rock Sugar
Equipment
- 1 wide mouth gallon glass jar
- Cheesecloth or floursack cloth
- Large rubber band
Best Temperature
- 25ºC
Instruction
1. Sterilised glass water in boiling water for 10 minutes. Try in oven or using an electric hair dryer until dry.
2. Wash the apples and leave it to dry. Spray both apple surface and glass jar with 40% alcohol.
3. Coarsely chop into pieces no smaller than 1 inch. Don’t peel the skin, discard cores, stems and seeds.
4. Filled in the jar witha thin layer of crashed rock sugar, then a layer of apple. The chopped apples should at least fill to the top level of the container and maybe a bit more. If at least a half the container is not filled, add additional apple scraps until you achieve this level as a minimum.
5. Cover the top of the glass jar with 4 to 6 layers of cheesecloth, a thin white dishtowel or flour-sack cloth and secure with a large rubber band.
6. Leave on the counter without direct sunshine for about 2 months, don’t open during the fermentation process. Bubbles will begin to form as the sugar ferments into alcohol on the 7 ~ 10 days, you will smell this happening.
7. Taste your raw apple cider vinegar to determine if it is ready starting after 2 months. If he taste still isn’t quite strong enough, leave it for another week and try again. If it has the right level of vinegar taste for you, strain out the apple scraps and pour the hard apple cider into a fresh 1 glass jar or smaller sized glass bottle with ceramic jugs of your choosing. Don’t cover with metal lid. A small amount of sediment on the bottom is normal. In addition, a mother culture will form on top.
Tips
- Raw apple cider vinegar doesn’t go bad, but if you leave it for a long time, another mother culture will likely form on top. This is fine, just strain it again if desired and dilute with a bit of water if the taste has become too strong.
