This beer should have 170 calories in 12 oz, and is 5.1% ABV.
As usual, I used my auto-siphon to do so. However, as you may have seen in an earlier post, I was using the tubing as a blowoff tube for the IPA while it fermented, and because of this it got very dirty inside.
The siphon looks like this:
Just pumping water through the tube did not clean all the sediment and debris off the sides, so what I did to clean it was cut a corner off of a sponge, insert it into the tubing at the connection indicated by the arrow, reattach the connection, and pump the sponge all through the tubing, then remove it at the second connection of tubing on the right. This pulled all the debris right out so I could sanitize the siphon and begin my bottling.
I also tried the cider today! It was good, especially considering I didn't use much at all to make it (see my cider post). I think priming with apple juice was a good idea, it tasted sweet and apple-y.
