Hard Cider Process for Beginners – Hard Cider from Apple Juice. A decent hard apple cider is usually a starting point for homebrewers. It’s simple, cheap, tastes pretty good and doesn’t have to take a long time to make. Of course, time heals all brews, and letting it age a bit will improve it, but, I digress. In this video we show you how to make a basic hard cider, using a process for beginners and take you through the making of it, to racking, and on to bottling and tasting our hard apple cider.
