Official BBC Cider Kits

The official Boston Beer Company Hard Cider Kit contains everything you need to craft six gallons of cider in many different flavors.  The equipment is much like the BBC Brewing kit, except that cider is fermented rather than brewed. 

In some ways making cider is similar to crafting wine.  Begin with a cider base, add sugarand yeast, and in a few short weeks you have cider! 

Our combo kits include ingredients and equipment - everything is in the box!  You do need at least two cases of bottles - and if you`re sparkling your cider, be sure to add priming sugar and brown beer bottles as they withstand pressure. 

All Equipment Kit options include:

• 6 gallon Fermonster Primary Vessel with Fermentation Lock and Stopper
• Deluxe food grade 7.8 gallon Bottling Bucket
• Fermtech Autosiphon (the simplest, most sanitary way to siphon)
• Food grade tubing
• Triple scale hydrometer (complete with instructions)
• Thermometer
• Bottle brush
• Carboy brush
• Cleaner
• Sanitizer
• Double lever bottle capper
• Spring-loaded bottle filler (attaches to the autosiphon and tube for filling bottles)
• Crown caps

Remember to include:

• 12 oz beer bottles (two cases plus about 10 bottles for the extra gallon) 
• Priming sugar- to create sparkling, or carbonated cider
