{PIC INCLUDED} My Cyser looks like baby puke.

[McJeff]

Only started on 9/16 so its pretty new. But this doesnt really scream "drink me"
Will that clear?

recipe is....

2g of local, unfiltered, nonpasturized fresh pressed cider
3.75lbs honey
4 cin sticks
1/2 a nutmeg
1 tsp pectin enzyme, which i let set over night ~8 hours
then pitched D47 and yeast nutrient the next morning.

It will clear in time after fermentation is finished. When it is done, you'll be wanting to transfer to a container without headspace to allow the clearing to continue over a period of weeks to months.

I've seen a LOT of baby puke in my day... this ain't close at all. This looks like a perfectly good start on a cyser to me. Unpasteurized apple cider doesn't start out clear. Give it time. (Disclaimer; I'm not one to pour a perfectly good glass of drink down the drain just because it's a little cloudy! )

I think it looks fine. Fresh juice, honey and yeast etc, you can't expect it to look pretty can you.....

 

[McJeff]

hah yeah I wasn't about to toss it and I know it's early. Never used fresh cider before, so was curious what It looked liked compared to others. My plum doesn't look all that appetizing either

Perfectly normal. All mead, wine, and beer is ugly until it clears. The only bad sign appearance wise is if you see fuzzy stuff growing on the top, like this:

Looks good to me.

I'm new to Meads but it seems Cyser goes through several color changes.

I have 2 batches of Cyser working right now and they looked like cider at first, then like orange juice for a week or two until the yeast started to settle.

Now they are clearing a little and starting to turn a nice amber coler.
