Add nutrient and energizer. .. 2 packets . 1118 . fermentation till perk stops. Wine hydrometer sinks to top white. Stop fermentation. Let settle and rack of to original juice jugs and freeze with no lids...after good freeze, turn jugs upside down on quart jars ,alcohol mix will drain, don't let ice melt but watch color will lighten up most of the waydown in the jug. take ice pick and poke a few holes in the bottoms, speeds up the alcohol drain. Add stick of cinnamon 1/2 vanilla bean, couple cloves, small slice of orange, 2 or 3 small slices of apple, 1/4 cup sugar.....let sit for a week or more. Great Apple Jack. About 30 to 40%.
