How difficult is it to make alcoholic cider at home? Is the process basically the same as making beer? - home cider making
I do not drink much beer, but a good cider (Woodchuck, Strongbow, etc..) I saw this "you brew your own beer" in several places, and the thought of it a go but it would be much more interest in the development of my own beer, cider, cranberry cider, etc.
If you have done this and how difficult it is to do? Is it expensive?

As already mentioned, is actually easier to make beer at home. It is almost as simple as "Throw Some yeast in the bottle of apple juice and 'let it rip !"... almost.
Here is another good recipe:

I had the good fortune to organic farming, the filtered juice in glass gallon and half a packet of wine yeast. Above all, cleanliness is the most important thing to maintain. Quality ingredients seconds, but without cleaning and disinfecting materials, even the best ingredients can be destroyed.
If you use the method of a gallon of start is not at all expensive.
A liter of apple juice in the glass, perhaps as much as $ 8.00 (usually less). A packet of dry wine yeast (usually with a yeast red wine) is about $ 1.00, and you need only half or less (it's good) for a maximum of 5 gallons. An air lock is a good idea to monitor progress and to keep contaminants away. A rubber stopper with a hole, and some plastic pipesworks well in a glass of water and costs $ 1.00 Some people will tell you to put a ball on the top of the bottle and put one or two holes in order to relieve stress ... this work in an emergency, but it is very likely to fall and hence pollution. You need to) (also a form the disinfectant solution for it is the most important part of the room air and the outer packaging. You need to be some additional tips, the cider of the first container, such as diverting slows fermentation. Maybe $ 5 (for which I personally iodophor disinfectant) and another 2 or 3 dollars swear for additional pipelines.
So they are less than $ 20 for the first game. Then you just need apple to the next, and the second group, the cost of $ 8 or less juice.
Google "home brew stores" in their field, in which all the tracks that you need ... Yeast, plugs, pipes, etc. After a few games, you have an idea when you go out or expanded to beer, wine, grass like, etc.win, DIY space is useful for the next step.
