As many of you already know, Meghan and I had the incredible joy of welcoming our little boy, Bjorn William Anderson, into the world a few days ago on Thanksgiving evening. He is such an incredible, beautiful creation, and Meghan and I have been filled with such joy. At his birth, Bjorn weighed 9 lbs, 4 oz, and was 21.75 inches tall. Not a small guy! Thank you all so much for your calls, visits, and prayers. Mom, dad, and baby are all doing very well…except for a bit of fatigue on my and Meghan’s part. ;-)

Logic has a small office out in Vancouver, WA. When I was out there during the summer of ‘04, I very much enjoyed the wares of the Widmer brewing company. After seeing this ad, I respect the company even more:

Since my first attempt at making a hard cider turned out very well, I decided to take another hack at it. This time, the recipe’s a bit different:
Fermentables
- 4.75 Gallons store-bought apple cider (cub brand)
- 4 Cans Welch’s Frozen White Grape/Raspberry Juice
- 2 Cans Old Orchard Frozen Cranberry Juice
Yeast
- White Labs 570 – Belgian Golden Ale
Notes
- 11/18/05 – Gave a 1-minute shot of oxygen and pitched yeast at 8:00PM. OG 1.060.
- 11/19/05 – First signs of fermentation at 1200 today. Thin coat of foam covering the top of the cider at 2000.
- 11/20/05 – At 1850, all the kreusen is gone, but fermentation is still roaring away. It’s bubbling about once every second and a half or so.
- 12/6/05 – At 2130, racked to secondary. Current gravity is 1.006, making the current ABV 6.8%. Tasted pretty good, though there is still a ton of suspended yeast that skew the taste of the cider.
- 03/24/06 – Bottled. Used 3/4 cup of corn sugar to prime. FG = 1.002, making this puppy 7.6%. Not too bad.
