Making hard cider at home is easy and rewarding with the right kits and ingredients. Whether you prefer a dry, crisp cider, a sweet fruit-forward style, or a spiced seasonal cider, selecting high-quality yeast, nutrients, and fermentation aids ensures clean fermentation, bright flavors, and a well-balanced final product.
Our Hard Cider Kits & Ingredients collection includes complete cider-making kits, perfect for beginners looking for an all-in-one solution. We also offer a variety of cider yeast strains from top brands like Red Star, Lalvin, Mangrove Jack’s, Wyeast, and White Labs, each tailored to enhance apple aromatics, acidity balance, and overall mouthfeel.
To fine-tune your cider, we carry yeast nutrients, pectic enzymes for clarity, and stabilizers like Potassium Metabisulfite and Potassium Sorbate to prevent re-fermentation when back-sweetening. Looking to experiment? Add fruit purees, adjuncts, or tannin enhancers for custom flavors and complexity. Whether fermenting fresh-pressed apple juice or concentrate, these ingredients help create consistent, flavorful, and high-quality hard cider.
