Im making cyser from apples from my home garden. I did make cyser last year with apple juice bought from an orchard, but this time Ive tried to juice my garden apples instead.
Anyway now I do have several gallons of applejuice but 30% of the volume seem to be just foam floating on top. My question is should I remove the foam or just leave it in the primary ferment for extra yeast nutrient and flavour?
 
Thanks.
Whats your preferred yeast and gravity.

For future projects how would pressed apple juice work as a basis in berry/fruit melomels. The reason Im asking is because with my old and newly planted apple trees Im probably atleast in a good year get enough juice to fill a 50 gallon beer barrel.
