Fermenters

A 7.9 Gallon Fermenter with a grommeted lid is the right vessel to use for your Peach Mango Cider Kit because you need extra headspace to account for active fermentation. It is good to replace buckets from time because plastic harbors bacteria. Here's a link to our fermenter equipment.

Hoses

Many people reuse their hoses for far too long. Replacing your hoses often is highly recommended with cider making. Even if you have good sanitation practices, hoses are particularly difficult to keep clean. You do not want to risk a bacterial contamination in your Peach Mango Cider Kit over something that costs very little to replace. 

Siphons

Auto-siphons are a great luxury item to have in your cider making equipment. Once you have one you will never go without one again. Don't forget to use a heavy duty sanitizer to clean it since you don't want to replace it often as hoses. A good sanitizer for that job is Five Star San. Like hoses, Siphons are also difficult to keep clean so it is advisable to replace them.

Growlers

Amber Growler 32 oz comes in a case of 12. A growler is the perfect size for bottling your Peach Mango Cider in larger vessels. Caps sold separately. Use 38 mm caps. 

Airlocks

Airlocks are another inexpensive product that should be periodically replaced. Though it might be easy to assume bacteria is not a concern with airlocks because they do not actually touch your cider, this is not the case. There are all kinds of humidity bridges bacteria can use to infiltrate your batch. You don't want to risk losing your Peach Mango Cider over a potentially unsanitary and cheap piece of plastic.

Bottles 

You can bottle your Peach Mango Cider in 12 ounce or 22 ounce bottles. Both bottles use the same cap. 

Sugars

Your Peach Mango Cider Kit requires added sugar. The most commonly used is corn sugar mentioned in the product description and pictured here. However, you also have the option to choose from different sugars to impart different flavor subtleties. 

Hydrometers

Hydrometers can last a lifetime, if they don't break. If you have suffered the disappointment of breaking your favorite hydrometer you can view them here.  

Cappers

You will need a bottle capper if you choose to bottle your Peach Mango Cider. You can choose from hand held cappers to bench mounts. 

 Five Star San

Good sanitation practices are at the very heart of good cider making. Five Star San is a good choice.
