RE: [nafex] cider apples
Mike,
Try
this link... http://www.talisman.com/cider/ I
get a digest of letter, etc.. every month regarding your area of interest.
They have access to archived letters and information and a way for you to
subscribe to receive this information yourself. I cannot recall verbatim
regarding the varieties of apples to use but the last few months of the digest
has had several discussion about varieties to try.
Hope
that helps,
Brian
Sheridan, IN where the apple buds are at tight
cluster
I'm interested in producing good hard cider and
know that it is
essential to use cider apples. I'm from the east and
am aware of one
orchard of about 15 acres dedicated to these
varieties located in new
England but am unaware of any other orchards
elswhere. Does anyone
have a guess as to how many acres of cider
trees exist out of the
461,000 acres Dept of Agric. says are in existence
today in the US?
Personally I've got about 50 of these in my 1 year old
orchard so
maybe I'm the second largest grower in the US BUT I doubt
it.
I'm also looking for referrences re varieties of American cider trees
that were used when hard cider was the drink of choice many years
ago.
Any help would be appreciated.
Mike
