So I've made this 3 times now and I just love the flavor, and high alcohol.
5 gallons apple juice (pasteurized)
2 cans of apple juice concentrate
24 oz of light brown sugar
Wyeast cider yeast
1-2 cinnamon sticks
I melt the sugar into the concentrate and bring it up to 180 degrees. Dump the juice and the sugar/concentrate into the fermenter. Stir it all together, top with the yeast. Usual o.g.-1.070. Usual f.g.- 1.002. Transfer to a secondary, a week before I keg I drop in the cinnamon sticks. A week later I transfer to a keg. Carb it up and enjoy!
Edit: I've used UV pasteurized from a cider mill and the Costco unfiltered "natural" cider, both came out great.
