I have spent the last month or so trying to make hard apple cider. It is coming along fairly well. In an effort to use the whole apple I am attempting to make cider vinegar from the scraps. In reading online it says add one cup of sugar to one gallon of water pour over apple waste, let sit for a week. Strain and allow to turn to vinegar. Process should take about a month.
After talking to someone at a local brew shop there would not be enough alcohol with just a cup of sugar per gallon. It was suggested I need to add more sugar and potentially yeast. Has anyone made vinegar? Any ideas if this might be true?
