Essentially a key difference with purchased yeasts is that they are usually cultured for reliability and alcohol tolerance. The catch is in my opinion that the result is often more wine like than cider like. So it really depends whether your goal is to produce a product with a high abv or simply very applely tasting hard cider but with a lower abv. Yes James, you have it right.

This went over really well as I don't have the gumption or time or supplies (etc) to make hard cider from scratch. We took it one step further and warmed it all up and served it with apple slices and cinnamon sticks. After a few hours of games and drinks, no one could care less if it were authentic or not. It is the friendship that counts and the fun that goes with it. Lighten up people. Life is TOO short to fuss over such things - Cheers! We too have friends that are game to try anything.

This is indeed interesting; thus prompted we have attempted to research this further but so far have only found somewhat anecdotal "the distillation process is 'believed' to destroy the gluten enzyme" comments. This rather than anything clearly definitive from an authoritative site makes us treat this information with caution. Clearly though this is potentially very good news. My wife is not so sensitive a celiac that she cannot try something (in moderation) and get more than an upset stomach and aches. So we will have to conduct our own highly unscientific trial :) Hi JC, thanks for your comment regarding our story and especially regarding your comments about the gluten free nature of distilled liquors.

Only done a few batches, but can't say that I'd find your recipe distasteful. I just wanted to point out that newer research has shown that the distillation process of hard liquors destroys the gluten enzyme, thus making it palatable for gluten insensitive individuals (of which I am one). As long as said liquor has not been colored with something artificial, it turns out we celiac sufferers can now partake in many of the libations we've been missing out on!
